A Comparison of Audio Signal Preprocessing Methods for Deep Neural Networks on Music Tagging

6 Sep 2017  ·  Keunwoo Choi, György Fazekas, Kyunghyun Cho, Mark Sandler ·

In this paper, we empirically investigate the effect of audio preprocessing on music tagging with deep neural networks. We perform comprehensive experiments involving audio preprocessing using different time-frequency representations, logarithmic magnitude compression, frequency weighting, and scaling. We show that many commonly used input preprocessing techniques are redundant except magnitude compression.
