Claim ID
evaluation-practice
Assertion
Downbeat tracking is usually evaluated with F-measure at a ±70 ms tolerance; comparisons between systems are often impossible because of differing metrics and datasets; test sets include the SMC set of hard-to-track pieces and Carnatic, Cretan, and Turkish music.
Quote
In line with almost all other publications on the topic of downbeat tracking, we report the F-measure (F1) with a tolerance window of ±70 ms. [...] We do not report scores for all sets used for training, since comparisons with other works are often not possible due to different evaluation metrics and/or datasets. [...] the SMC set (built specifically to comprise hard-to-track musical pieces) [...] For non-western music we use the Carnatic, Cretan, and Turkish datasets
