Abstract:<\/strong> This paper presents two key contributions to the real-time classi- fication of Instrumental Playing Techniques (IPTs) in the context of NIME and human-machine interactive systems: the EG-IPT dataset and the ipt\u223c\u00a0Max\/MSP object. The EG-IPT dataset, specif- ically designed for electric guitar, encompasses a broad range of IPTs captured across six distinct audio sources (five microphones and one direct input) and three pickup configurations. This di- versity in recording conditions provides a robust foundation for training accurate models. We evaluate the dataset by employing a Convolutional Neural Network-based classifier (CNN), achieving state-of-the-art performance across a wide array of IPT classes, thereby validating the dataset\u2019s efficacy. The ipt\u223c\u00a0object is a new Max\/MSP external enabling real-time classification of IPTs via pre-trained CNN models. While in this paper it\u2019s demonstrated with the EG-IPT dataset, the ipt\u223c\u00a0object is adaptable to models trained on various instruments. By integrating EG-IPT and ipt\u223c, we introduce a novel, end-to-end workflow that spans from data collection, model training to real-time classification and human- computer interaction. This workflow exemplifies the entangle- ment of diverse components (data acquisition, machine learning, real-time processing, and interactive control) within a unified system, advancing the potential for dynamic, real-time music performance and human-computer interaction in the context of NIME.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
