چکیده
In this paper we present the Latin Music Database, a novel database of Latin musical recordings which has been developed for automatic music genre classification, but can also be used in other music information retrieval tasks. The method for assigning genres to the musical recordings is based on human expert perception and therefore capture their tacit knowledge in the genre labeling process. We also present the ethnomusicology of the genres available in the database as it might provide important information for the analysis of the results of any experiment that employs the database.

متن کاملBeat and Downbeat Tracking Based on Rhythmic Patterns Applied to the Uruguayan Candombe Drumming
Computational analysis of the rhythmic/metrical structure of music from recorded audio is a hot research topic in music information retrieval. Recent research has explored the explicit modeling of characteristic rhythmic patterns as a way to improve upon existing beat-tracking algorithms, which typically fail on dealing with syncopated or polyrhythmic music. This work takes the Uruguayan Candom...
متن کاملMusic Genre Recognition Using Gabor Filters and LPQ Texture Descriptors
This paper presents a novel approach for automatic music genre recognition in the visual domain that uses two texture descriptors. For this, the audio signal is converted into spectrograms and then textural features are extracted from this visual representation. Gabor filters and LPQ texture descriptors were used to capture the spectrogram content. In order to evaluate the performance of local ...
متن کاملAutomatic Genre Classification of Latin Music Using Ensemble of Classifiers
This paper presents a novel approach to the task of automatic music genre classification which is based on ensemble learning. Feature vectors are extracted from three 30-second music segments from the beginning, middle and end of each music piece. Individual classifiers are trained to account for each music segment. During classification, the output provided by each classifier is combined with ...
