In this study we make use of musical labels annotated for 1.2 million tracks. This large amount of data allows us to unrestrictedly explore different front-end paradigms: from assumption-free models – using waveforms as input with very small convolutional filters; to models that rely on domain knowledge – log-mel spectrograms with a convolutional neural network designed to learn temporal and timbral features. Results suggest that while spectrogram-based models surpass their waveform-based counterparts, the difference in performance shrinks as more data are employed.application/pdfeng© Sound & Music Computinginfo:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceObjectinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
