摘要翻译：
乐谱跟踪是根据已知的符号表示（乐谱）来跟踪音乐表演（音频）的过程。本文首先将分数跟随描述为一个多模马尔可夫决策过程，这是序列决策的数学基础。给出这个形式化的定义，我们用最先进的深度强化学习(RL)算法来解决分数跟随任务，如同步优势演员批评(A2C)。特别是，我们设计了多模态RL代理，可以同时学习听音乐，从乐谱图像中读取乐谱，并以端到端的方式跟踪乐谱中的音频。所有这些行为都是从零开始学习的，基于一个微弱的、潜在延迟的奖励信号，该信号向智能体指示它离得分中的正确位置有多近。除了讨论这种学习范式的理论优势外，我们在实验中表明，它实际上优于以前提出的原始乐谱图像分数跟随方法。

英文摘要：
  Score following is the process of tracking a musical performance (audio) with respect to a known symbolic representation (a score). We start this paper by formulating score following as a multimodal Markov Decision Process, the mathematical foundation for sequential decision making. Given this formal definition, we address the score following task with state-of-the-art deep reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms such as synchronous advantage actor critic (A2C). In particular, we design multimodal RL agents that simultaneously learn to listen to music, read the scores from images of sheet music, and follow the audio along in the sheet, in an end-to-end fashion. All this behavior is learned entirely from scratch, based on a weak and potentially delayed reward signal that indicates to the agent how close it is to the correct position in the score. Besides discussing the theoretical advantages of this learning paradigm, we show in experiments that it is in fact superior compared to previously proposed methods for score following in raw sheet music images.
