Gugak-VocalSet：带 Sigimsae 标注的韩国传统歌唱多流派录音室级数据集

View PDF HTML (experimental)

Abstract:We present Gugak-VocalSet, the first publicly available audio dataset for Korean traditional singing with dense annotations of sigimsae, a structured pitch contour system of vocal expressions. Gugak-VocalSet contains 24.5 hours of unaccompanied solo vocal recordings across 305 tracks of representative repertoire curated by the National Gugak Center, performed by 20 professional singers in a controlled studio environment with fixed key and tempo. In addition to genre, lyrics, and mood/timbre tags, the dataset provides a unified sigimsae ontology and approximately 68,000 segments (71,700 instances including multi-label) of audio-grounded sigimsae annotations; the ontology adopts a functional-position-based hierarchy designed for consistent application across genres, and 14 expert annotators specializing in Korean traditional music performed segment-level labeling accordingly. Baseline experiments on sigimsae classification and event detection show that domain-informed F0 representations remain competitive with, and on classification surpass, frozen probing of a general-purpose music foundation model, while pitch and spectral cues play complementary roles in event-level detection.
