New Gangqinpu dataset aligns piano audio, MIDI, and scores across genres

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have introduced Gangqinpu, a new dataset designed to advance piano music analysis and performance modeling. This dataset features over 18,000 score-performance pairs and more than 1,000 hours of audio, with detailed note-level alignments and beat annotations. Gangqinpu encompasses a wide range of genres, including pop, classical, jazz, folk, rock, and blues, and includes an automated pipeline for transcription, alignment, and genre labeling. Initial experiments show that Gangqinpu improves performance in tasks such as MIDI-to-score transcription, expressive performance rendering, and beat tracking. AI

IMPACT Facilitates advancements in AI models for music transcription, performance rendering, and beat tracking.
