Introduction to our series work

The development log of our Music Audio Pre-training (m-a-p) model family:

02/06/2023: arxiv pre-print and training codes released.
17/03/2023: we release two advanced music understanding models, MERT-v1-95M and MERT-v1-330M , trained with new paradigm and dataset. They outperform the previous models and can better generalize to more tasks.
14/03/2023: we retrained the MERT-v0 model with open-source-only music dataset MERT-v0-public
29/12/2022: a music understanding model MERT-v0 trained with MLM paradigm, which performs better at downstream tasks.
29/10/2022: a pre-trained MIR model music2vec trained with BYOL paradigm.

Here is a table for quick model pick-up:

Name	Pre-train Paradigm	Training Data (hour)	Pre-train Context (second)	Model Size	Transformer Layer-Dimension	Feature Rate	Sample Rate	Release Date
MERT-v1-330M	MLM	160K	5	330M	24-1024	75 Hz	24K Hz	17/03/2023
MERT-v1-95M	MLM	20K	5	95M	12-768	75 Hz	24K Hz	17/03/2023
MERT-v0-public	MLM	900	5	95M	12-768	50 Hz	16K Hz	14/03/2023
MERT-v0	MLM	1000	5	95 M	12-768	50 Hz	16K Hz	29/12/2022
music2vec-v1	BYOL	1000	30	95 M	12-768	50 Hz	16K Hz	30/10/2022

Explanation

The m-a-p models share the similar model architecture and the most distinguished difference is the paradigm in used pre-training. Other than that, there are several nuance technical configuration needs to know before using:

Model Size: the number of parameters that would be loaded to memory. Please select the appropriate size fitting your hardware.
Transformer Layer-Dimension: The number of transformer layers and the corresponding feature dimensions can be outputted from our model. This is marked out because features extracted by different layers could have various performance depending on tasks.
Feature Rate: Given a 1-second audio input, the number of features output by the model.
Sample Rate: The frequency of audio that the model is trained with.

Introduction to this model

MERT-v0 is a completely unsupervised model trained on 1000 hour music audios. Its architecture is similar to the HuBERT model, but it has been specifically designed for music through the use of specialized pre-training strategies. It is SOTA-comparable on multiple MIR tasks even under probing settings, while keeping fine-tunable on a single 2080Ti. It outperforms Jukebox representation on GTZAN (genre classification) and GiantSteps (key classification) datasets. Larger models trained with more data are on the way.

Model Usage

python

from transformers import Wav2Vec2FeatureExtractor
from transformers import AutoModel
import torch
from torch import nn
import torchaudio.transforms as T
from datasets import load_dataset


# loading our model weights
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("m-a-p/MERT-v0", trust_remote_code=True)
# loading the corresponding preprocessor config
processor = Wav2Vec2FeatureExtractor.from_pretrained("m-a-p/MERT-v0",trust_remote_code=True)

# load demo audio and set processor
dataset = load_dataset("hf-internal-testing/librispeech_asr_demo", "clean", split="validation")
dataset = dataset.sort("id")
sampling_rate = dataset.features["audio"].sampling_rate

resample_rate = processor.sampling_rate
# make sure the sample_rate aligned
if resample_rate != sampling_rate:
    print(f'setting rate from {sampling_rate} to {resample_rate}')
    resampler = T.Resample(sampling_rate, resample_rate)
else:
    resampler = None

# audio file is decoded on the fly
if resampler is None:
    input_audio = dataset[0]["audio"]["array"]
else:
  input_audio = resampler(torch.from_numpy(dataset[0]["audio"]["array"]))
  
inputs = processor(input_audio, sampling_rate=resample_rate, return_tensors="pt")
with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model(**inputs, output_hidden_states=True)

# take a look at the output shape, there are 13 layers of representation
# each layer performs differently in different downstream tasks, you should choose empirically
all_layer_hidden_states = torch.stack(outputs.hidden_states).squeeze()
print(all_layer_hidden_states.shape) # [13 layer, Time steps, 768 feature_dim]

# for utterance level classification tasks, you can simply reduce the representation in time
time_reduced_hidden_states = all_layer_hidden_states.mean(-2)
print(time_reduced_hidden_states.shape) # [13, 768]

# you can even use a learnable weighted average representation
aggregator = nn.Conv1d(in_channels=13, out_channels=1, kernel_size=1)
weighted_avg_hidden_states = aggregator(time_reduced_hidden_states.unsqueeze(0)).squeeze()
print(weighted_avg_hidden_states.shape) # [768]
