🎶 Released mule-torch — an unofficial PyTorch port of MULE (SF-NFNet-F0), SiriusXM/Pandora's music-audio embedding model (McCallum et al., ISMIR 2022).
No retraining: I re-implemented the architecture in pure PyTorch and transferred the original TensorFlow weights, then checked it layer by layer against the genuine TF pipeline.
✅ End-to-end clip-embedding cosine 0.9999999 vs the original
✅ ONNX backbone parity < 1e-6
✅ 62.35M params (paper: ~62.4M)
✅ Batched, GPU-native, ONNX-exportable — none of which the original
🤗 Weights: matteospanio/mule
💻 Code: https://github.com/matteospanio/mule-torch
📦 PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/mule-torch/
The fun bug: parity was perfect through every conv but the block output was anti-correlated (cos = −1). Cause: the learnable skip-init gains couldn't be mapped by layer name (Keras scrambles the order) — they had to be recovered from the graph.

🎧 Help us evaluate AI-generated music across cultures
We are running a new online survey to collect data for a follow-up study on AI-generated music and sonic seasoning: the phenomenon where sound can influence the perception of taste.
This study builds on our previous work:
📄 Paper: A Multimodal Symphony: Integrating Taste and Sound through Generative AI (2503.02823)
🤗 Model release: csc-unipd/tasty-musicgen-small
In the previous study we introduced Tasty MusicGen, a model designed to generate music associated with taste descriptors, and showed that it can effectively produce music that evokes specific taste-related sensations.
With this new survey, we aim to expand the participant pool to create a more inclusive and cross-cultural evaluation, helping us understand how these musical cues are perceived across different linguistic and cultural backgrounds.
Participants will listen to short AI-generated music clips and evaluate the sensations they evoke.
⏱️ Takes about 10 minutes
👉 Participate here:

Your participation will help us better understand how generative music models interact with human perception across cultures. Thanks to everyone who participates or shares!
