Researchers have developed a novel supervised approach to restore historical orchestral music, a task previously hindered by the lack of ground-truth data. By simulating a realistic degradation chain for early 20th-century recordings, they created a synthetic dataset enabling end-to-end deep learning restoration. Their latent flow-matching model demonstrates superior performance over existing methods in both objective and subjective evaluations, and they have released a substantial test set and associated code.
