چکیده

This paper describes some early attempts at developing a music indexing and retrieval system based on melody, or the tune, of songs. In the envisaged system the “query”, a song fragment whistled or sung by the user into a microphone, is used to search a database of soundtracks to find the entry that is best matched to it in tune. The challenging issues that raised by this endeavour are described. Signal processing tools suitable for melody detection are presented, and finally some experimentally obtained results are discussed.
