The authors' main claim Our findings underpin that adaptive filtering is inapt of dealing with music signals and that Wiener filtering in the short-time Fourier transform domain is a much more effective approach.

The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v1. Results and the main claim are underlined; .

Research in collaborative music learning is subject to unresolved problems demanding new technological solutions. One such problem poses the suppression of the accompaniment in a live recording of a performance during practice, which can be for the purposes of self-assessment or further machine-aided analysis. Being able to separate a solo from the accompaniment allows to create learning agents that may act as personal tutors and help the apprentice improve his or her technique. First, we start from the classical adaptive noise cancelling approach, and adjust it to the problem at hand. In a second step, we compare some adaptive and Wiener filtering approaches and assess their performances on the task. Our findings underpin that adaptive filtering is inapt of dealing with music signals and that Wiener filtering in the short-time Fourier transform domain is a much more effective approach. In addition, it is very cheap if carried out in the frequency bands of auditory filters. A double-output extension based on maximal-ratio combining is also proposed.

The paper
Original abstract

Research in collaborative music learning is subject to unresolved problems demanding new technological solutions. One such problem poses the suppression of the accompaniment in a live recording of a performance during practice, which can be for the purposes of self-assessment or further machine-aided analysis. Being able to separate a solo from the accompaniment allows to create learning agents that may act as personal tutors and help the apprentice improve his or her technique. First, we start from the classical adaptive noise cancelling approach, and adjust it to the problem at hand. In a second step, we compare some adaptive and Wiener filtering approaches and assess their performances on the task. Our findings underpin that adaptive filtering is inapt of dealing with music signals and that Wiener filtering in the short-time Fourier transform domain is a much more effective approach. In addition, it is very cheap if carried out in the frequency bands of auditory filters. A double-output extension based on maximal-ratio combining is also proposed.
