This paper describes a method for melody detection in polyphonic musical signals. Our approach starts by obtaining a set of pitch candidates for each time frame, with recourse to ...
Common approaches to creating playlists are to randomly shuffle a collection (e.g. iPod shuffle) or manually select songs. In this paper we present and evaluate heuristics to ad...
Finding the best matching database target to a melodic query has been of great interest in the music IR world. The string alignment paradigm works well for this task when comparin...
We describe a recursive algorithm to quickly compute the N nearest neighbors according to a similarity measure in a metric space. The algorithm exploits an intrinsic property of a...
This paper describes a multi-pitch analysis method using specmurt analysis with iterative estimation of the quasioptimal common harmonic structure function. Specmurt analysis (Sag...
