Vocal Melody Extraction in Polyphonic Music


Main Contributor: Sangeun Kum

Vocal melody extraction is the task that identifies the melody pitch contour of singing voice from mixed audio. We have developed deep neural network models for the tasks and have investigated training methods to tackle the scarsity of labeled dataset.
