MulTTiPop: A Multitrack Transcription Dataset for Pop Music
We present MulTTiPop, a dataset of pop music segments and their associated multitrack MIDI recordings for the evaluation of automatic music transcription models. MulTTiPop contains 572 segments of popular music totaling 3.5 hours of audio, and contains songs from diverse genres and decades from the 1930s to 2000s. To collect this dataset, we perform metadata-based matching on song segments from the Lakh MIDI and TheoryTab datasets, manually identify an anchor beat between the audio and MIDI, then use beat tracking on the audio and warp the MIDI to match its tempo and timing. We evaluate state-
An Efficient vLLM-Based Inference Pipeline for Unified Audio Understanding and Generation
While Large Multimodal Models excel in comprehension, high-throughput inference engines lack native support for multimodal generation. This is severe in Speech Language Models, where generating multi-layered audio tokens via decoupled AR+NAR or synchronous Multi-Token Prediction (MTP) with delay-pattern interleaving conflicts with standard single-stream loops. We present a vLLM-based inference pipeline for unified speech understanding and generation. We extend autoregressive decoding to natively execute delay-pattern de-interleaving and coordinated multi-stream sampling, integrating an on-GPU
