Conventional and periodic N-grams in the transcription of drum sequences

In this paper, we describe a system for transcribing polyphonic drum sequences from an acoustic signal to a symbolic representation. Low-level signal analysis is done with an acoustic model consisting of a Gaussian mixture model and a support vector machine. For higher-level modelling, periodic N-grams are proposed to construct a "language model" for music, based on the repetitive nature of musical structure. Also, a technique for estimating relatively long N-grams is introduced. The performance of N-grams in the transcription was evaluated using a database of realistic drum sequences from different genres and yielded a performance increase of 7.6 % compared to a the use of only prior (unigram) probabilities with the acoustic model.
