Historically\nthese problems have been approached separately, and only recently, using\nlearning-based approaches. We present a multitask deep learning architecture\nthat jointly estimates outputs for various tasks including multiple-f0, melody,\nvocal and bass line estimation, and is trained using a large,\nsemi-automatically annotated dataset. We show that the multitask model\noutperforms its single-task counterparts, and explore the effect of various\ndesign decisions in our approach, and show that it performs better or at least\ncompetitively when compared against strong baseline methods.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1809.00381v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1809.00381v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"multitask-learning-for-fundamental-frequency","repo_url":"https://github.com/rabitt/multitask-f0","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=1809.00381","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
