Abstract

In music, short-term features such as pitch and tempo constitute long-term semantic features such as melody and narrative. A music genre classification (MGC) system should be able to analyze these features. In this research, we propose a novel framework that can extract and aggregate both short- and long-term features hierarchically. Our framework is based on ECAPA-TDNN, where all the layers that extract short-term features are affected by the layers that extract long-term features because of the back-propagation training. To prevent the distortion of short-term features, we devised the convolution channel separation technique that separates short-term features from long-term feature extraction paths. To extract more diverse features from our framework, we incorporated the frequency sub-bands aggregation method, which divides the input spectrogram along frequency bandwidths and processes each segment. We evaluated our framework using the Melon Playlist dataset which is a large-scale da
