构建了最大规模的钢琴乐谱与演奏对齐数据集,支持高精度音乐表现研究。
PianoCoRe: Combined and Refined Piano MIDI Dataset

- 整合483位作曲家5625首作品,统一命名并修复音符对齐错误
- 含25万段演奏录音,其中15.7万段与乐谱实现音符级对齐
- 适合音乐生成、表现力建模及大规模预训练任务
符号化音乐数据集需包含匹配的乐谱与演奏,对音乐信息检索至关重要。现有资源普遍存在作曲家范围窄、演奏多样性不足、缺少音符级对齐或命名不一致等问题。本文提出PianoCoRe,一个大规模钢琴MIDI数据集,整合并优化主流开源钢琴语料库。数据集包含483位作曲家创作的5,625首作品,总计250,046段演奏,累计21,763小时表演音乐。按应用需求提供分层子集:用于大规模分析与预训练的PianoCoRe-C和去重后的PianoCoRe-B,以及支持音符级乐谱对齐的表达性演奏建模的PianoCoRe-A/A*。其中,PianoCoRe-A是目前最大的公开音符对齐数据集,包含157,207段与1,591首乐谱对齐的演奏。此外,研究贡献包括:(1)一个用于检测损坏或类似乐谱的转录的MIDI质量分类器;(2)RAScoP对齐优化流程,可修复时间对齐错误并补全缺失音符。分析表明,该方法显著降低时间噪声并消除速度异常值。基于PianoCoRe训练的表达性演奏渲染模型,在面对未见作品时表现出更强鲁棒性,优于在原始或小规模数据集上训练的模型。PianoCoRe为下一代钢琴表现力研究提供了即用型基础。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Symbolic music datasets with matched scores and performances are essential for many music information retrieval (MIR) tasks. Yet, existing resources often cover a narrow range of composers, lack performance variety, omit note-level alignments, or use inconsistent naming formats. This work presents PianoCoRe, a large-scale piano MIDI dataset that unifies and refines major open-source piano corpora. The dataset contains 250,046 performances of 5,625 pieces written by 483 composers, totaling 21,763 h of performed music. PianoCoRe is released in tiered subsets to support different applications: from large-scale analysis and pre-training (PianoCoRe-C and deduplicated PianoCoRe-B) to expressive performance modeling with note-level score alignment (PianoCoRe-A/A*). The note-aligned subset, PianoCoRe-A, provides the largest open-source collection of 157,207 performances aligned to 1,591 scores to date. In addition to the dataset, the contributions are: (1) a MIDI quality classifier for detecting corrupted and score-like transcriptions and (2) RAScoP, an alignment refinement pipeline that cleans temporal alignment errors and interpolates missing notes. The analysis shows that the refinement reduces temporal noise and eliminates tempo outliers. Moreover, an expressive performance rendering model trained on PianoCoRe demonstrates improved robustness to unseen pieces compared to models trained on raw or smaller datasets. PianoCoRe provides a ready-to-use foundation for the next generation of expressive piano performance research.
