Developing an AI-Powered Karaoke Experience - Thomas Hézard & Clément Tabary - ADC23

Karaoke has been of popular interest for many years, from the first karaoke bars in the 1970s to the karaoke video games of today, and the recent progress in deep learning technologies has opened up new horizons. Audio source separation and voice transcription algorithms now give the opportunity to create a complete karaoke song, with instrumental track and synchronised lyrics, from any mixed music track. Real-time stems remixing, pitch and tempo control, and singing quality assessment are other useful audio features to go beyond the traditional karaoke experience. In this talk we will discuss the challenges we had to tackle to provide our users with a fully automatic and integrated karaoke system adapted for both mobile and web platforms.
