Using cultural metadata for artist recommendations
نویسندگان
چکیده
Our approach to generate recommendations for similar artists follows a recent tradition of authors tackling the problem not with content-based audio analysis. Following this novel procedure we rely on the acquisition, filtering and condensing of unstructured text-based information that can be found in the web. The beauty of this approach lies in the possibility to access so-called cultural metadata that is the agglomeration of several independent originally subjective perspectives about music.

Using Linked Open Data for Novel Artist Recommendations
As part of the Linking Open Data initiative many (community) platforms have made their data freely available in recent years. In these systems valuable information from the music domain can be found. We use this data for contentbased music recommendations thus not requiring expensive metadata annotations from domain experts. In this demo paper we present a system that uses data from the Freebas...

In the emerging world of networked and distributed digital libraries, the Web services framework will be a key to facilitating simple inter-application communication between them. Yet, despite the popularity of Web services in the business sector and their seemingly obvious applicability to the digital library domain, and to MIR in particular, the adoption of these new protocols has not been wi...
متن کاملUsing Semantic Relations for Content-based Recommender Systems in Cultural Heritage
Metadata vocabularies provide various semantic relations between concepts. For content-based recommender systems, these relations enable a wide range of concepts to be recommended. However, not all semantically related concepts are interesting for end users. In this paper, we identified a number of semantic relations, which are within one vocabulary (e.g. a concept has a broader/narrower concep...
متن کاملEvaluation of Schema.org for Aggregation of Cultural Heritage Metadata
In the World Wide Web, a very large number of resources is made available through digital libraries. The existence of many individual digital libraries, maintained by different organizations, brings challenges to the discoverability, sharing and reuse of the resources. A widely-used approach is metadata aggregation, where centralized efforts like Europeana facilitate the discoverability and use...
متن کاملHow Much Metadata Do We Need in Music Recommendation? A Subjective Evaluation Using Preference Sets
In this work we consider distance-based approaches to music recommendation, relying on an explicit set of music tracks provided by the user as evidence of his/her music preferences. Firstly, we propose a purely content-based approach, working on low-level (timbral, temporal, and tonal) and inferred high-level semantic descriptions of music. Secondly, we consider its simple refinement by adding ...
