چکیده

This paper presents an overview of different approaches to melody segmentation aimed at extracting music lexical units, which can be used as content descriptors of music documents. Four approaches have been implemented and compared on a test collection of real documents and queries, showing their impact on index term size and on retrieval effectiveness. From the results, simple but extensive approaches seem to give better performances than more sophisticated segmentation algorithms.

Audio Documents Analysis And Indexing: Entropy and Dynamism Criteria

This work relates to the solution of real multimedia documents indexing tasks. New approach to high-performance speech/music segmentation system creation is considered. This approach uses wavelet analysis and it is based not only on new distinctive features (entropy and dynamism) investigation, but it also takes into account information concerning language. Different experiments have shown the ...

Multifeature Audio Segmentation for Browsing and Annotation

Indexing and content-based retrieval are necessary to handle the large amounts of audio and multimedia data that is becoming available on the web and elsewhere. Since manual indexing using existing audio editors is extremely time consuming a number of automatic content analysis systems have been proposed. Most of these systems rely on speech recognition techniques to create text indices. On the...

Content-Based Indexing of Symbolic Music Documents

Indexing is the core component of most information retrieval systems, because it allows for a compact representation of the content of a collection of documents, aimed at efficient and scalable access and retrieval. Indexing techniques can be extended also to music, providing that significant descriptors are computed from music documents. These descriptors can be defined as the “lexical units” ...

Indexing and Retrieval of Music Documents through Pattern Analysis and Data Fusion Techniques

One of the challenges of music information retrieval is the automatic extraction of effective content descriptors of music documents, which can be used at indexing and at retrieval time to match queries with documents. In this paper it is proposed to index music documents with frequent musical patterns. A musical pattern is a sequence of features in the score that is repeated at least twice: fe...

A Search Engine for Handwritten Documents

The design and functionality of a versatile search engine on handwritten documents is described. Documents are indexed using global image features, e.g., stroke width, slant, word gaps, as well local features that describe shapes of characters and words. Image indexing is done automatically using page analysis, page segmentation, line separation, word segmentation and recognition of characters ...
