Evaluation of Query-by-Humming Systems using a Random Melody Database

چکیده

The performance of melody retrieval using a query-by-humming (QBH) system depends on different parameters. For the query, parameters like length of the query and possibly contained errors influence the success of the retrieval. But also the size of the melody database inside the QBH-system has a certain impact on the query. This paper describes how the statistical parameters of a random melody database are modelled to get the same behaviour like a database containing authentic melodies. Databases containing random melodies are a testing facility to QBH-systems.

A Note Based Query By Humming System Using Convolutional Neural Network

In this paper, we propose a note-based query by humming (QBH) system with Hidden Markov Model (HMM) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) since note-based systems are much more efficient than the traditional frame-based systems. A note-based QBH system has two main components: humming transcription and candidate melody retrieval. For humming transcription, we are the first to use a hybrid mode...

A Music Retrieval System with Spelling Correction Technique

In this paper, we describe a novel music information retrieval system using spelling correction technique. The current music retrieval systems with humming enable a user give a query with humming. However, there is a problem that a user cannot always input a complete melody to the system with humming. It is because the user often mistakes a melody in its query. In order to solve the problem, we...

Mid-Level Music Melody Representation of Polyphonic Audio for Query-by-Humming System

Recently a great attention is paid to content-based multimedia retrieval that enables users to find and locate audio-visual materials according to the intrinsic characteristics of the target. Query-by-humming (QBH) is also an application that makes retrieval based on major characteristics of music, that is, "melody". There have been some researches on QBH system, most of which are to retrieve m...

Melody Retrieval On The Web

The emergence of digital music on the Internet requires new information retrieval methods adapted to specific characteristics and needs. While music retrieval based on the text information, such as title, composers, or subject classification, has been implemented in many existing systems, retrieval of a piece of music based on musical content, especially an incomplete, imperfect recall of a fra...

Similarity matching of continuous melody contours for humming querying of melody databases

Music query-by-humming is a challenging problem since the humming query inevitably contains much variation and inaccuracy. Many of the previous methods, which adopt note segmentation and string matching with dynamic programming, suffer drastically from the errors in the note segmentation which affects retrieval accuracy and efficiency. In this paper, we present a novel melody similarity matchin...
