Instrument Recognition
Instrument recognition is the task of automatically identifying which musical instruments are present in an audio recording. Formalized by Eronen et al. (2005), it addresses timbre—the tonal quality distinguishing one instrument from another. Instrument recognition is essential for music analysis, transcription, automatic indexing, and music education. It remains challenging in polyphonic contexts but has achieved good accuracy in solo and sparse accompaniment scenarios.
