We introduce a neural network, known as SONNETMAP, capable of automatic segmentation, learning and retrieval of melodies. SONNET-MAP is a synthesis of the SONNET (Self-Organizing ...
This paper reports a research project intended to build a real-time music-understanding system producing intuitively meaningful descriptions of real-world musical audio signals, s...
This paper outlines the findings-to-date of a project to assist in the efforts being made to establish a TREC-like evaluation paradigm within the Music Information Retrieval (MIR)...
In this paper we examine the retrieval performance of adjacent and concurrent n-grams generated from polyphonic music data. We deploy a method to index polyphonic music using a wo...
In this paper we present algorithms for the automatic time-synchronizationof score-, MIDI- or PCMdata streams representing the same polyphonic piano piece.
