چکیده
Electronic Music Distribution (EMD) is in demand of robust, automatically extracted music descriptors. We introduce a timbral similarity measures for comparing music titles. This measure is based on a Gaussian model of cepstrum coefficients. We describe the timbre extractor and the corresponding timbral similarity relation. We describe experiments in assessing the quality of the similarity relation, and show that the measure is able to yield interesting similarity relations, in particular when used in conjunction with other similarity relations. We illustrate the use of the descriptor in several EMD applications developed in the context of the Cuidado European project.

متن کاملOn the Evaluation of Perceptual Similarity Measures for Music
Several applications in the field of content-based interaction with music repositories rely on measures which estimate the perceived similarity of music. These applications include automatic genre recognition, playlist generation, and recommender systems. In this paper we study methods to evaluate the performance of such measures. We compare five measures which use only the information extracte...

Nowadays, urbanization is a common process which replaces vegetation cover with impervious areas. This process increases urban stormwater. A new tendency in urban stormwater management endorses ‘source control’, whereby distributed water sensitive urban design systems are built throughout the subdivisions to alleviate the effects of land use changes. Various costs and functions are ...
متن کاملNew distance and similarity measures for hesitant fuzzy soft sets
The hesitant fuzzy soft set (HFSS), as a combination of hesitant fuzzy and soft sets, is regarded as a useful tool for dealing with the uncertainty and ambiguity of real-world problems. In HFSSs, each element is defined in terms of several parameters with arbitrary membership degrees. In addition, distance and similarity measures are considered as the important tools in different areas such as ...
متن کاملFrom Improved Auto-Taggers to Improved Music Similarity Measures
This paper focuses on the relation between automatic tag prediction and music similarity. Intuitively music similarity measures based on auto-tags should profit from the improvement of the quality of the underlying audio tag predictors. We present classification experiments that verify this claim. Our results suggest a straight forward way to further improve content-based music similarity measu...
