AI model fine-tuning explores pop/jazz mix ratios for genre-adaptive chord generation

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

A new paper explores how to fine-tune a music generation model for a new genre without losing proficiency in the original. Researchers studied a 25M-parameter Music Transformer, initially trained on pop music, and fine-tuned it on a smaller jazz dataset. They found that mixing in approximately 2.5K samples of the original pop data helped the model retain its pop accuracy while gaining significant jazz capabilities. AI

IMPACT This research offers insights into effective data mixing strategies for fine-tuning generative models across different domains, potentially improving co-creation tools.
