A Melodic Similarity Measure Based on Human Similarity Judgments

Music software applications often require similarity-finding methods. One instance involves performing content-based searches, where music similar to what is heard by the listener is retrieved from a database using audio or symbolic input. Another instance involves music generation tools where compositional suggestions are provided by the application based on user-provided musical choices (e.g....

Melodic similarity among folk songs: An annotation study on similarity- based categorization in music

In this article we determine the role of different musical features for the human categorization of folk songs into tune families in a large collection of Dutch folk songs. Through an annotation study we investigate the relation between musical features, perceived similarity and human categorization in music. We introduce a newly developed annotation method which is used to create an annotation...

Presentation of an efficient automatic short answer grading model based on combination of pseudo relevance feedback and semantic relatedness measures

Automatic short answer grading (ASAG) is the automated process of assessing answers based on natural language using computation methods and machine learning algorithms. Development of large-scale smart education systems on one hand and the importance of assessment as a key factor in the learning process and its confronted challenges, on the other hand, have significantly increased the need for ...

Human Similarity Judgments: Implications for the Design of Formal Evaluations

This paper presents findings of a series of analyses of human similarity judgments from the Symbolic Melodic Similarity, and Audio Music Similarity tasks from the Music Information Retrieval Evaluation Exchange (MIREX) 2006. The categorical judgment data generated by the evaluators is analyzed with regard to judgment stability, inter-grader reliability, and patterns of disagreement, both within...
