Helping Music Co-Creation Agents'Listen'Well: Hierarchical Self-Supervised World Models for Understanding and Generation

Collaborative music agents need internal representations rich enough to support both understanding and generation, yet flexible enough for a workflow where the human retains agency. We present a hierarchical self-supervised ``world model''for symbolic music: a 2.55M-parameter Swin V2 encoder trained on MIDI piano-roll...

MIDI-RAE-JEPA: Hierarchical Representation Learning and Generation for Symbolic Music

The results suggest that equivariance-based SSL objectives, combined with sufficient fine-level encoder capacity, provide a viable path toward semantically rich, generatively useful representations of symbolic music.
