Primary LanguagePythonMIT LicenseMIT

This repository contains the training code of our winning model at Music Demixing Challenge 2021, which got the 4th place on leaderboard A (6th in overall), and help us (Kazane Ryo no Danna) winned the bronze prize.

Model Summary

Our final winning approach blends the outputs from three models, which are:

  1. model 1: A X-UMX model [1] which is initialized with the weights of the official baseline, and is fine-tuned with a modified Combinational Multi-Domain Loss from [1]. In particular, we implement and apply a differentiable Multichannel Wiener Filter (MWF) [2] before the loss calculation, and compute the frequency-domain L2 loss with raw complex values.

  2. model 2: A U-Net which is similar to Spleeter [3], where all convolution layers are replaced by D3 Blocks from [4], and two layers of 2D local attention are applied at the bottleneck similar to [5].

  3. model 3: A modified version of Demucs [6], where the original decoding module is replaced by four independent decoders, each of which corresponds to one source.

We didn't encounter overfitting in our pilot experiments, so we used the full musdb training set for all the models above, and stopped training upon convergence of the loss function.

The weights of the three outputs are determined empirically:

Drums Bass Other Vocals
model 1 0.2 0.1 0 0.2
model 2 0.2 0.17 0.5 0.4
model 3 0.6 0.73 0.5 0.4

For the spectrogram-based models (model 1 and 2), we apply MWF to the outputs with one iteration before the fusion.

How to reproduce the training

Install Requirements / Build Virtual Environment

We recommend using conda.

conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate demixing

Prepare Data

Please download musdb, and edit the "root" parameters in all the json files listed under configs/ to the path where you have the dataset.

Training Model 1

First download the pre-trained model:

wget https://zenodo.org/record/4740378/files/pretrained_xumx_musdb18HQ.pth

Copy the weights for initializing our model:

python xumx_weights_convert.py pretrained_xumx_musdb18HQ.pth xumx_weights.pth

Start training!

python train.py configs/x_umx_mwf.json --weights xumx_weights.pth

Checkpoints will be located under saved/. The config was set to run on a single RTX 3070.

Training Model 2

python train.py configs/unet_attn.json --device_ids 0 1 2 3

Checkpoints will be located under saved/. The config was set to run on four Tesla V100.

Training Model 3

python train.py configs/demucs_split.json

Checkpoints will be located under saved/. The config was set to run on a single RTX 3070, using gradient accumulation and mixed precision training.

Tensorboard Logging

You can monitor the training process using tensorboard:

tesnorboard --logdir runs/

Inference

First make sure you installed danna-sep. Then convert your checkpoints into jit scripts and replace the files under DANNA_CHECKPOINTS:

python jit_convert.py configs/x_umx_mwf.json saved/CrossNet\ Open-Unmix_checkpoint_XXX.pt $DANNA_CHECKPOINTS/xumx_mwf.pth

python jit_convert.py configs/unet_attn.json saved/UNet\ Attention_checkpoint_XXX.pt $DANNA_CHECKPOINTS/unet_attention.pth

python jit_convert.py configs/demucs_split.json saved/DemucsSplit_checkpoint_XXX.pt $DANNA_CHECKPOINTS/demucs_4_decoders.pth

Now you can use danna-sep to separate you favorite music and see how it works!
