Demucs (Deep Extractor for Music Sources) is a deep-learning framework for music source separation—extracting individual instrument or vocal tracks from a mixed audio file. The system is based on a U-Net-like convolutional architecture combined with recurrent and transformer elements to capture both short-term and long-term temporal structure. It processes raw waveforms directly rather than spectrograms, allowing for higher-quality reconstruction and fewer artifacts in separated tracks. The...

ConvNeXt V2 is an evolution of the ConvNeXt architecture that co-designs convolutional networks alongside self-supervised learning. The V2 version introduces a fully convolutional masked autoencoder (FCMAE) framework where parts of the image are masked and the network reconstructs the missing content, marrying convolutional inductive bias with powerful pretraining. A key innovation is a new Global Response Normalization (GRN) layer added to the ConvNeXt backbone, which enhances feature competition across channels. ...
