Fretting-Transformer: Encoder-Decoder Model for MIDI to Tablature Transcription
Music transcription plays a pivotal role in Music Information Retrieval (MIR), particularly for stringed instruments like the guitar, where symbolic music notations such as MIDI lack crucial playability information. This contribution introduces the Fretting-Transformer, an encoderdecoder model that utilizes a T5 transformer architecture to automate the transcription of MIDI sequences into guitar tablature. By framing the task as a symbolic translation problem, the model addresses key challenges…

Distribution of polynomial orbits in Toeplitz systems
We examine the convergence of ergodic averages along polynomials in Toeplitz systems and prove that it is possible for averages along one polynomial to converge, and along another to diverge. We also study density of the polynomial orbits in Toeplitz systems -- we show that it implies equidistribution of the polynomial orbits in the class of regular Toeplitz systems, but not in the class of strictly ergodic ones.

Local perturbations of block Toeplitz matrices
This work is about the asymptotic spectral theory of tridiagonal Toeplitz matrices with matrix entries, with periodicity broken on a finite number of entries. Varying the ranks of these perturbations allow to interpolate between open boundary and circulant Toeplitz matrices. While the continuous part of the limit spectrum only depends on these ranks and no other aspect of the perturbation, the outliers of the spectrum depend continuously on the local perturbation. The proof is essentially based…

i was put in charge of three grandchildren for a few hours yesterday so we headed straight to ben & jerry's to split a milkshake, then explored the state theater (and even sneaked into a movie but later got thrown out for horsing around on the escalator), then i gave a nickel tour of angell/mason/haven halls, then they chased squirrels on the diag which took longer than you might think, then we looked in all the windows in nickels arcade. it all went slowly and well.
