Task 1: Multiple Fundamental Frequency Estimation (MF0E)[edit]

MF0E Overall Summary Results[edit]

Below are the average scores across 40 test files. These files come from 3 different sources: woodwind quintet recording of bassoon, clarinet, horn,flute and oboe (UIUC); Rendered MIDI using RWC database donated by IRCAM and a quartet recording of bassoon, clarinet, violin and sax donated by Dr. Bryan Pardo`s Interactive Audio Lab (IAL). 20 files coming from 5 sections of the woodwind recording where each section has 4 files ranging from 2 polyphony to 5 polyphony. 12 files from IAL, coming from 4 different songs ranging from 2 polyphony to 4 polyphony and 8 files from RWC synthesized midi ranging from 2 different songs ranging from 2 polphony to 5 polyphony.

Info about the filenames[edit]

The filenames starting with part* comes from acoustic woodwind recording, the ones starting with RWC are synthesized. The legend about the instruments are:

bs = bassoon, cl = clarinet, fl = flute, hn = horn, ob = oboe, vl = violin, cel = cello, gtr = guitar, sax = saxophone, bass = electric bass guitar

Task 2:Note Tracking (NT)[edit]

NT Mixed Set Overall Summary Results[edit]

This subtask is evaluated in two different ways. In the first setup , a returned note is assumed correct if its onset is within +-50ms of a ref note and its F0 is within +- quarter tone of the corresponding reference note, ignoring the returned offset values. In the second setup, on top of the above requirements, a correct returned note is required to have an offset value within 20% of the ref notes duration around the ref note`s offset, or within 50ms whichever is larger.

A total of 34 files were used in this subtask: 16 from woodwind recording, 8 from IAL quintet recording and 6 piano.

NT Piano-Only Overall Summary Results[edit]

This subtask is evaluated in two different ways. In the first setup , a returned note is assumed correct if its onset is within +-50ms of a ref note and its F0 is within +- quarter tone of the corresponding reference note, ignoring the returned offset values. In the second setup, on top of the above requirements, a correct returned note is required to have an offset value within 20% of the ref notes duration around the ref note`s offset, or within 50ms whichever is larger. 6 piano recordings are evaluated separately for this subtask.
