Automatic meter extraction from midifiles

This paper presents an automatic meter extraction system which relies on auto-correlation coefficients. The input format for music is midi, and we assume that a beat is known. As output, our algorithm provides a set of possible metric groupments sorted by a confidence criteria. The algorithm has been tested on several pieces of Rameau and results are encouraging.

MAPS - A piano database for multipitch estimation and automatic transcription of music MAPS - Base de données de sons de piano pour l’estimation de fréquences fondamentales multiples et la transcription automatique de la musique

MAPS – standing for MIDI Aligned Piano Sounds – is a database of MIDI-annotated piano recordings. MAPS has been designed in order to be released in the music information retrieval research community, especially for the development and the evaluation of algorithms for single-pitch or multipitch estimation and automatic transcription of music. It is composed by isolated notes, random-pitch chords...

Towards a Human-Friendly Melody Characterization by Automatically Induced Rules

There is an increasing interest in music information retrieval for reference, motive, or thumbnail extraction from a piece in order to have a compact and representative representation of the information to be retrieved. One of the main references for music is its melody. In a practical environment of symbolic format collections the information can be found in standard MIDI file format, structur...

Mining Digital Music Score Collections: Melody Extraction and Genre Recognition

In the field of computer music, pattern recognition algorithms are very relevant for music information retrieval (MIR) applications. Two challenging tasks in this area are the automatic recognition of musical genre and melody extraction, having a number of applications like indexing and selecting musical databases. One of the main references for music is its melody. In a practical environment o...
