BERT-Based AI for Automatic Piano Reduction: A Semi-Supervised Approach

The research explores an innovative application of BERT and semi-supervised learning to the task of automatic piano reduction, which is a novel and potentially useful application of AI. The ArXiv source suggests that the work is preliminary, but a successful implementation could have practical value for musicians and music production.

• •Applies transformer model BERT to musical score reduction.
• •Utilizes semi-supervised learning for potentially better performance with limited labeled data.
• •Addresses the practical need for automatic piano reduction in music workflows.
