MuseGAN is a deep learning research project designed to generate symbolic music using generative adversarial networks. The system focuses specifically on generating multi-track polyphonic music, meaning that it can simultaneously produce multiple instrument parts such as drums, bass, piano, guitar, and strings. Instead of generating raw audio, the model operates on piano-roll representations of music, which encode notes as time-pitch matrices for each instrument track. This representation...

YuE is an open source project that provides a foundation model designed for full-song music generation using artificial intelligence. It focuses on transforming text inputs such as lyrics and genre prompts into complete musical compositions that include both vocal and instrumental tracks. Unlike many shorter audio generators, the model is capable of producing songs that last several minutes while maintaining coherent musical structure and alignment with the provided lyrics. YuE introduces a...

Piano transcription is an open-source high-resolution piano transcription system by ByteDance that converts raw audio recordings of piano performance into symbolic MIDI files — detecting note onsets, offsets, pitch, velocity, and even pedal usage. The system is implemented in Python (PyTorch) and is capable of accurate transcription of polyphonic piano recordings, even with complex passages and pedal techniques, making it suitable for classical piano music. By using this transcription tool,...

GiantMIDI-Piano is a large-scale symbolic classical piano music dataset built by applying the piano_transcription system on a vast collection of piano performance recordings. The dataset contains thousands of piano works, spanning a large number of composers and styles, with each piece transcribed into high-precision MIDI files capturing note events, pedal usage, velocities, etc. It provides a resource for music information retrieval (MIR), symbolic music modeling, composer classification, music generation, analysis of classical piano repertoire, and data-driven research in musicology or AI-based composition.
