Studying a Musical Repertoire with Computational Approaches: The Case of Carnatic Music
Seminar by Xavier Serra at RITMO's Seminar Series (December 3rd, 2024)
Abstract:
In this talk, we will explore our extensive research efforts in applying computational methodologies to analyze and understand diverse music traditions, with a focus on Carnatic music. We will delve into the journey from identifying research questions to disseminating impactful results, highlighting the collaborative process with musicians, scholars, and technologists within the Carnatic music community. This presentation will address various facets of our work, including the curation and creation of culturally rich datasets, the development of tailored signal processing and machine learning techniques, and the unique challenges we encountered in capturing the nuanced characteristics of Carnatic music. We will discuss specific tasks such as audio source separation and melodic analysis, showcasing the methodologies and tools designed to address the complex, ornamented structures of Carnatic music.
The talk will also cover evaluation frameworks that measure the relevance and accuracy of our findings, as well as the development of practical applications that support both academic research and broader community engagement. Finally, we will reflect on the broader implications of this research, considering its impact on the preservation and understanding of non-Western musical repertoires and the field of computational musicology.

Presentation by Nazif Can Tamer at the 24th International Society for Music Information Retrieval Conference (ISMIR 2023). A descriptive transcription of a violin performance requires detecting not only the notes but also the fine-grained pitch variations, such as vibrato. Most existing deep learning methods for music transcription do not capture these variations and often need frame-level anno...
