Enhancing Music Maps
نویسنده
چکیده
Private as well as commercial music collections keep growing and growing. The increasing number of songs in these repositories pose serious challenges to users. PlaySOM and PocketSOM provide map-based access to large audio collections. They provide a quick overview of the whole collection as well as an in-depth view on specific music styles. Furthermore they support the user while exploring and navigating through the collection and provide quick and intuitive playlist creation. But yet, Music Maps have not revealed their full strength. There are still several issues to be solved, such as the continuing growth of collection or multiuser playlist generation. Questions related to these and other issues will be identified and outlined in this paper.

A Data Focusing method for Microwave Imaging of Extended Targets
This paper presents a data focusing method (DFM) to image extended targets using the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm. The restriction on the number of transmitter-receiver antennas in a microwave imaging system deteriorates profiling an extended target that comprises many point scatterers. Under such situation, the subspace-based linear inverse scattering methods, like the MUSI...

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...
متن کاملAffecting Decision Making: Eliciting Emotional Responses during Map Reading through Music
Long recognized in the arts, the influence of sounds and music on emotional reactions to visual stimuli remains remarkably unconsidered in cartography. Social scientists are increasingly aware that cognitive processing and decision making cannot be fully understood without accounting for affect. Geographic representations are often designed for decision making, but strategies for representing, ...
متن کاملVisual Mining in Music Collections
We describe the MusicMiner system for organizing large collections of music with databionic mining techniques. Visualization based on perceptually motivated audio features and Emergent Self-Organizing Maps enables the unsupervised discovery of timbrally consistent clusters that may or may not correspond to musical genres and artists. We demonstrate the visualization capabilities of the U-Map. A...
متن کاملAutomatically Describing Music on a Map
In this paper, we present a technique to automatically create music maps labeled with semantic descriptors, the so called Music Description Maps (MDM). Based on a Self-organizing Map (SOM) trained on audio features, we create term profiles that characterize the type of music in the various clusters. To this end, we efficiently retrieve musicrelated term descriptors for music artists from theWeb...
