Researchers have developed the Equivariant Music Transformer (EMT), a novel model designed to better capture musical structures by enforcing equivariance. Unlike standard music transformers that tend to memorize patterns, EMT uses self-distillation with an auxiliary equivariance regularization loss. This approach improves both next-token prediction and generates more equivariant latent representations, demonstrating superior performance in objective and subjective evaluations compared to existing methods.
