摘要翻译：
近年来，深度学习提高了许多音乐信息检索(MIR)系统的性能。然而，音乐的复杂层次安排使得端到端学习对于某些MIR任务来说变得困难--一个非常深入和灵活的处理链对音乐音频的某些方面建模是必要的。涉及音调、和弦和节奏的表征是音乐的基本组成部分。本文讨论了如何将它们作为MIR中的中间目标和先验信息来处理结构复杂的学习问题，将学习模块连接在一个有向无环图中。本文认为，这种被称为深度分层学习(DLL)的推理策略可以通过（1）--在加工过程中加强中间表征的有效性和不变性，(2)--让所推断的表征建立音乐组织来支持更高层次的不变性加工来帮助概括。模块化音乐处理的背景与先前出版物的概述一起提供。在DLL的上下文中回顾了来自信息处理的相关概念，如剪枝、跳过连接和性能监控。最后进行了测试，显示了分层学习如何影响基音跟踪。研究表明，特别是在提取的帧基频的指导下，偏移量更容易检测。

英文摘要：
  Deep learning has boosted the performance of many music information retrieval (MIR) systems in recent years. Yet, the complex hierarchical arrangement of music makes end-to-end learning hard for some MIR tasks - a very deep and flexible processing chain is necessary to model some aspect of music audio. Representations involving tones, chords, and rhythm are fundamental building blocks of music. This paper discusses how these can be used as intermediate targets and priors in MIR to deal with structurally complex learning problems, with learning modules connected in a directed acyclic graph. It is suggested that this strategy for inference, referred to as deep layered learning (DLL), can help generalization by (1) - enforcing the validity and invariance of intermediate representations during processing, and by (2) - letting the inferred representations establish the musical organization to support higher-level invariant processing. A background to modular music processing is provided together with an overview of previous publications. Relevant concepts from information processing, such as pruning, skip connections, and performance supervision are reviewed within the context of DLL. A test is finally performed, showing how layered learning affects pitch tracking. It is indicated that especially offsets are easier to detect if guided by extracted framewise fundamental frequencies.
