| May 28, 2026 | I am happy to announce that I will be speaking at the Ital-IA 2026 conference in Rome on June 18th. I will present two papers accepted for publication in the conference proceedings: a review on the AI related studies we do at CSC “Preserving Memory, Expanding Creativity: Human-Centered AI Trajectory in Engineering and Music Research at the CSC of Padua University” and a follow up work on Lilybert: “Can LLMs understand LilyPond? A benchmark for symbolic music generation and understanding”. See you there! |
| Apr 12, 2026 | We release Lilybert, a new model for music understanding. It introduces lilypond notation format to DL. It is available for download on Hugging Face, alongside an open dataset available on zenodo. Learn more about it in our preprint paper. Enjoy! |
| Aug 28, 2025 | Next week I’ll present torchfx, a new python library for GPU accelerated audio effects, at DAFx 2025 in Ancona, Italy. The conference will take place from 2 to 6 September 2025. Hope to see you there! |
| Mar 05, 2025 | I am happy to announce the release of a our new deep learning model for synesthetic music generation. It is available for download on Hugging Face. Learn more about it in our preprint paper. Enjoy! |
| Nov 03, 2024 | My two new papers Towards Emotionally Aware AI: Challenges and Opportunities in the Evolution of Multimodal Generative Models and Filming the sound: Anomaly Detection on Audio Tape Recordings using Computer Vision Algorithms have been accepted for publication at the 23rd International Conference of the Italian Association for Artificial Intelligence that will take place in Bozen between 25 and 28 november. See you there! |
| Aug 18, 2024 | A new paper titled A novel derivative-based approach for the automatic detection of time-reversed audio in the MPAI/IEEE-CAE ARP international standard by Marina Bosi, Fabio Zanini, Alessandro Russo, Sergio Canazza and me has been accepted at the AES Show 2024 that will take place in New York from 8 to 10 October 2024. See you in New York! |
