Tempo detector based on a neural network
Suchánek, Tomáš ; Smékal, Zdeněk (referee) ; Ištvánek, Matěj (advisor)
This Master’s thesis deals with beat tracking systems, whose functionality is based on neural networks. It describes the structure of these systems and how the signal is processed in their individual blocks. Emphasis is then placed on recurrent and temporal convolutional networks, which by they nature can effectively detect tempo and beats in audio recordings. The selected methods, network architectures and their modifications are then implemented within a comprehensive detection system, which is further tested and evaluated through a cross-validation process on a genre-diverse data-set. The results show that the system, with proposed temporal convolutional network architecture, produces comparable results with foreign publications. For example, within the SMC dataset, it proved to be the most successful, on the contrary, in the case of other datasets it was slightly below the accuracy of state-of-the-art systems. In addition,the proposed network retains low computational complexity despite increased number of internal parameters.

Automatic tagging of musical compositions using machine learning methods
Semela, René ; Galáž, Zoltán (referee) ; Kiska, Tomáš (advisor)
One of the many challenges of machine learning are systems for automatic tagging of music, the complexity of this issue in particular. These systems can be practically used in the content analysis of music or the sorting of music libraries. This thesis deals with the design, training, testing, and evaluation of artificial neural network architectures for automatic tagging of music. In the beginning, attention is paid to the setting of the theoretical foundation of this field. In the practical part of this thesis, 8 architectures of neural networks are designed (4 fully convolutional and 4 convolutional recurrent). These architectures are then trained using the MagnaTagATune Dataset and mel spectrogram. After training, these architectures are tested and evaluated. The best results are achieved by the four-layer convolutional recurrent neural network (CRNN4) with the ROC-AUC = 0.9046 ± 0.0016. As the next step of the practical part of this thesis, a completely new Last.fm Dataset 2020 is created. This dataset uses Last.fm and Spotify API for data acquisition and contains 100 tags and 122877 tracks. The most successful architectures are then trained, tested, and evaluated on this new dataset. The best results on this dataset are achieved by the six-layer fully convolutional neural network (FCNN6) with the ROC-AUC = 0.8590 ± 0.0011. Finally, a simple application is introduced as a concluding point of this thesis. This application is designed for testing individual neural network architectures on a user-inserted audio file. Overall results of this thesis are similar to other papers on the same topic, but this thesis brings several new findings and innovations. In terms of innovations, a significant reduction in the complexity of individual neural network architectures is achieved while maintaining similar results.
