Multitask Learning based Deep Learning Model for Music Artist and Language Recognition

Yeshwant Singh, Anupam Biswas


Abstract
Artist and music language recognitions of music recordings are crucial tasks in the music information retrieval domain. These tasks have many industrial applications and become much important with the advent of music streaming platforms. This work proposed a multitask learning-based deep learning model that leverages the shared latent representation between these two related tasks. Experimentally, we observe that applying multitask learning over a simple few blocks of a convolutional neural network-based model pays off with improvement in the performance. We conduct experiments on a regional music dataset curated for this task and released for others. Results show improvement up to 8.7 percent in AUC-PR, similar improvements observed in AUC-ROC.
