Using a model which is convolutive in both time and frequency we factorize a spectrogram representation of music into components corresponding to individual instruments. Based on this factorization we separate the instruments using spectrogram masking. The proposed algorithm has applications in computational auditory scene analysis, music information retrieval, and automatic music transcription." }
