Results

Next to testing how well different algorithms compare when measured with the metrics introduced in earlier forms of this track, the goal of this year's run of drts was also to investigate alternative evaluation measures. Next to establishment, occurrence and three-layer measures, which determine the success of an algorithm to find annotated patterns, we also evaluated coverage and lossless compression of the algorithms, i.e., to what extent a piece is covered, or can be compressed, by discovered patterns.

(For mathematical definitions of the various metrics, please see 2017:Discovery_of_Repeated_Themes_&_Sections#Evaluation_Procedure.)

SymMono

VM1, successful in the last years' editions of drts, achieves overall highest results for the establishment metrics (cf. Figures 1-3), i.e., it finds a great number of the annotated patterns. It is only outperformed by other measures on piece 2 of the ground truth, where DM1 and DM3, and the new entry CS7 achieve higher results for establishment F1 score. CS7 is overall successful with respect to finding occurrences of patterns (cf. Figures 4-6), comparable to successful results of previous years. (NB: OL1 did not run on piece 5 of the ground truth, which is why values are missing.) The three-layer measures (Figures 7-9) show varying degrees of agreement with the ground truth for the ground truth pieces, and again CS7 and VM1 compare favourably to previous submissions.

The new measure coverage shows that VM1, DM1 and DM3 find patterns in almost all notes of the ground truth pieces (cf. Figure 10); other algorithms share this tendency for piece 2 and 5 of the ground truth, but in other pieces, most notably piece 4, CS7 and other algorithms seem to have a very sparse coverage of the piece with patterns. An abundance of overlapping patterns lead to poor lossless compression scores, and CS7 seems to find few overlapping patterns, as its score at lossless compression is overall highest (cf. Figure 11), notably also for piece 2 where it achieved high coverage, too: this means that it found most notes of the piece as patterns, and these patterns can be used to compress the piece very successfully.

Runtimes were not evaluated this year, as the comparison of the machines of new submissions to runtimes from previous years would not have been very conclusive. The new submission, CS7, completed analysis of the ground truth pieces in a few minutes on a 2 GHz Intel Core i5 machine.

SymPoly

DM1, the most successful measure for polyphonic discovery, again compares favourably in the establishment, occurrence and three-layer metrics this year. The new submission, CS3, outperforms DM1-DM3 in piece 1 on establishment measures (cf. Figures 12-14) , and in piece 2 on occurrence precision (cf. Figure 15).

Coverage shows again that DM1 and DM3 find patterns in almost all notes of the ground truth pieces (Figure 21). CS3, NF1 and DM2 (which was optimized for precision metrics) show lower coverage, CS3 lowest overall. CS3 achieves overall highest values in lossless compression (Figure 22).

Discussion

The new compression evaluation measures are not highly correlated with the metrics measuring retrieval of annotated patterns. This may be caused by the fact that lossless compression is lower for algorithms which find overlapping patterns: human annotators, and also some pattern discovery algorithms, may find valid overlapping patterns, as patterns may be hierarchically layered (e.g., motifs which are part of themes). We will add new, prediction based measures, and new ground truth pieces to the task next year.
