In the “query-by-humming” problem, we attempt to retrieve a specific song from a target set based on a sung query. Recent evaluations of query-by-humming systems show that th...
Semi-continuous acoustic models, where the output distributions for all Hidden Markov Model states share a common codebook of Gaussian density functions, are a well-known and prov...
This article describes an application of the partially observable Markov (POM) model to the analysis of a large scale commercial web search log. Mathematically, POM is a variant o...
Chord sequences are a compact and useful description of music, representing each beat or measure in terms of a likely distribution over individual notes without specifying the not...
Knowledge representation is essential for semantics modeling and intelligent information processing. For decades researchers have proposed many knowledge representation techniques...
