• Title: Joint sentiment analysis of lyrics and audio in music
• Authors: Lea Schaab, Anna Kruspe,
• Abstract summary: In automatic analysis, the actual audio data is usually analyzed, but the lyrics can also play a crucial role in the perception of moods. We first evaluate various models for sentiment analysis based on lyrics and audio separately. The corresponding approaches already show satisfactory results, but they also exhibit weaknesses.

• Abstract: Sentiment or mood can express themselves on various levels in music. In automatic analysis, the actual audio data is usually analyzed, but the lyrics can also play a crucial role in the perception of moods. We first evaluate various models for sentiment analysis based on lyrics and audio separately. The corresponding approaches already show satisfactory results, but they also exhibit weaknesses, the causes of which we examine in more detail. Furthermore, different approaches to combining the audio and lyrics results are proposed and evaluated. Considering both modalities generally leads to improved performance. We investigate misclassifications and (also intentional) contradictions between audio and lyrics sentiment more closely, and identify possible causes. Finally, we address fundamental problems in this research area, such as high subjectivity, lack of data, and inconsistency in emotion taxonomies.

  We are inspired by how musicians compose music not just from a movie script, but also through visualizations. We propose MeLFusion, a model that can effectively use cues from a textual description and the corresponding image to synthesize music. Our exhaustive experimental evaluation suggests that adding visual information to the music synthesis pipeline significantly improves the quality of generated music.

• Multimodal Lyrics-Rhythm Matching [0.0]
  We propose a novel multimodal lyrics-rhythm matching approach that specifically matches key components of lyrics and music with each other. We use audio instead of sheet music with readily available metadata, which creates more challenges yet increases the application flexibility of our method. Our experimental results reveal an 0.81 probability of matching on average, and around 30% of the songs have a probability of 0.9 or higher of keywords landing on strong beats.

  We propose a causal intervention model for Implicit Sentiment Analysis using Instrumental Variable (ISAIV) We first review sentiment analysis from a causal perspective and analyze the confounders existing in this task. Then, we introduce an instrumental variable to eliminate the confounding causal effects, thus extracting the pure causal effect between sentence and sentiment.
