2016:Discovery of Repeated Themes & Sections Results

THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Introduction

The task: algorithms take a piece of music as input, and output a list of patterns repeated within that piece. A pattern is defined as a set of ontime-pitch pairs that occurs at least twice (i.e., is repeated at least once) in a piece of music. The second, third, etc. occurrences of the pattern will likely be shifted in time and/or transposed, relative to the first occurrence. Ideally an algorithm will be able to discover all exact and inexact occurrences of a pattern within a piece, so in evaluating this task we are interested in both:

• (1) to what extent an algorithm can discover one occurrence, up to time shift and transposition, and;
• (2) to what extent it can find all occurrences.

The metrics establishment recall, establishment precision and establishment F1 address (1), and the metrics occurrence recall, occurrence precision, and occurrence F1 address (2).

Contribution

Existing approaches to music structure analysis in MIR tend to focus on segmentation (e.g., Weiss & Bello, 2010). The contribution of this task is to afford access to the note content itself (please see the example in Fig. 1A), requiring algorithms to do more than label time windows (e.g., the segmentations in Figs. 1B-D). For instance, a discovery algorithm applied to the piece in Fig. 1A should return a pattern corresponding to the note content of $P_{1}$ and $P_{2}$, as well as a pattern corresponding to the note content of $Q_{1}$. This is because $Q_{1}$ occurs again independently of the accompaniment in bars 19-22 (not shown here). The ground truth also contains nested patterns, such as $P_{1}$ in Fig. 1A being a subset of the sectional repetition $S_{1}$, reflecting the often-hierarchical nature of musical repetition. While we recognise the appealing simplicity of linear segmentation, in the Discovery of Repeated Themes & Sections task we are demanding analysis at a greater level of detail, and have built a ground truth that contains overlapping and nested patterns (Collins et al., 2014).

Ground Truth and Algorithms

The ground truth, called the Johannes Kepler University Patterns Test Database (JKUPTD-Aug2013), is based on motifs and themes in Barlow and Morgenstern (1953), Schoenberg (1967), and Bruhn (1993). Repeated sections are based on those marked by the composer. These annotations are supplemented with some of our own where necessary. A Development Database (JKUPDD-Aug2013) enabled participants to try out their algorithms. For each piece in the Development and Test Databases, symbolic and synthesised audio versions are crossed with monophonic and polyphonic versions, giving four versions of the task in total: symPoly, symMono, audPoly, and audMono. There were no submissions to the audPoly or audMono categories this year, so two versions of the task ran. Submitted algorithms are shown in Table 1.

symMono

We welcomed a new participant (Ren, 2016) to the symMono version of the task. All other researchers participated in previous years, but some (Meredith, 2016; Pesek, Leonardis, & Marolt, 2016) submitted new versions of algorithms.

To recap some information from previous years, the metrics that can be calculated on a per-pattern basis (establishment recall and occurrence recall) present opportunities to test for significant differences in performance between algorithms. For the remaining metrics, which can only be calculated on a per-piece basis, we do not test for significant differences because the sample size is too small. Still, however, trends in results are evident in the figures and tables below. For instance, in the symMono task version, VM1's (Velarde & Meredith, 2016) establishment F1 score outperforms all other algorithms apart from for one piece (Fig. 18). It is also the stand-out performer on establishment recall (Fig. 14). IR1 does particularly well for some of the smaller/shorter patterns in piece 5 (Fig. 14), which other algorithms seem to miss.

Application of Friedman's test to establishment recall per pattern results revealed a significant main effect of algorithm ($\chi ^{2}(3)=54.5062,\ p<.001$). Bonferroni-corrected, pairwise tests suggested the ordering VM1 > DM1 ~ IR1 > PLM1, where > denotes a significant difference and ~ denotes no significant difference. Application of Friedman's test to occurrence recall per pattern results revealed a significant main effect of algorithm ($\chi ^{2}(3)=54.5062,\ p<.001$). Bonferroni-corrected, pairwise tests suggested the ordering VM1 > DM1 ~ PLM1 ~ IR1. One of these tests was only borderline-significant (that between VM1 and PLM1), but this is probably due to averaging results for PLM1 on piece 5 (see below or Fig. 15).

With regards runtimes (Fig. 25), it should be noted that those for PLM1 and IR1 are somewhat harsh, because the submissions had to be run on slower machines than the Linux cluster on which the other submissions were ran. This is a function of programming language/operating system used by the researchers. After running for one week on piece 5 (the longest piece), PLM1 did not produce output, so was assigned mean values over the remaining pieces (Figs. 14 and 15). It was assigned the maximum runtime over the remaining pieces (Fig. 25).

PLM1, DM2, VM1, and VM2 output far fewer patterns than other algorithms (see the n_Q column in Table 4). One potential application of pattern discovery algorithms is for playback accompanied by a visualization of repetitive structure. The relatively few patterns output by these algorithms make them more feasible candidates for this application.

symPoly

Meredith (2016) submitted three algorithms to the symPoly task version, selected according to performance on three-layer F1, precision, and recall metrics, respectively. DM3 outperforms DM2 on establishment recall ($\chi ^{2}(1)=11.9189,\ p<.05$, Bonferroni corrected), which is perhaps to be expected because DM3 was submitted by Meredith (2016) on the basis of a recall metric, whereas DM2 was submitted on the basis of a precision metric. Similarly, DM1 outperforms DM2 on establishment recall ($\chi ^{2}(1)=23.5161,\ p<.005$, Bonferroni corrected). Again, this is not particularly surprising because DM1 was submitted on the basis of an F1 performance metric (which combines recall and precision), whereas DM2 was submitted on the basis of a precision metric. DM3 is generally higher than DM2 on three-layer recall, and DM2 is mostly higher than DM3 on three-layer precision. Both of these results make sense, given the basis on upon which these algorithms were submitted.

Discussion

To be added post-ISMIR!

But it has already been discussed that next year we may switch to new training and test databases that focus not directly on the discovery task itself, but on an application of pattern discovery that can be used as a proxy to evaluate the extent to which algorithms have retrieved relevant repetitive material. For example, a prediction task. This may also bring interest from deep learners and/or cognitive scientists, looking to build on previous participants' work, which would be great. If you are interested in helping out with the preparation of a new version of the task, you are welcome to get in touch.
