Towards Automatic Retrieval of Album Covers
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present first steps towards intelligent retrieval of music album covers from the web. The continuous growth of electronic music distribution constantly increases the interest in methods to automatically provide added value like lyrics or album covers. While existing approaches rely on large proprietary databases, we focus on methods that make use of the whole web by using Google’s or A9.com’s image search. We evaluate the current state of the approach and point out directions for further improvements.

A novel approach to personal photo album representation and management
In this paper we present a novel approach to personal photo album management allowing the end user to efficiently access the collection without any need for tedious manual annotation or indexing of the photos. The proposed work exploits methods and technology from the field of computer vision and pattern recognition for face detection, face representation and image annotation to automatically c...
متن کاملObject-Layout-Aware Image Retrieval for Personal Album Management
This demo shows a real-time object-layout-aware image retrieval system for personal album management. The query of the system is image’s object layout and the system retrieves images based on the layout similarity of concerned objects in the query. Using automatic object localization algorithms, we propose to index the personal album with the object positions and scales in the 2D image plane, w...
متن کاملHierarchically-Attentive RNN for Album Summarization and Storytelling
We address the problem of end-to-end visual storytelling. Given a photo album, our model first selects the most representative (summary) photos, and then composes a natural language story for the album. For this task, we make use of the Visual Storytelling dataset and a model composed of three hierarchically-attentive Recurrent Neural Nets (RNNs) to: encode the album photos, select representati...
متن کاملTowards an Automatically Generated Music Information System Via Web Content Mining
This paper presents first steps towards building a music information system like last.fm, but with the major difference that the data is automatically retrieved from the WWW using web content mining techniques. We first review approaches to some major problems of music information retrieval (MIR), which are required to achieve the ultimate aim, and we illustrate how these approaches can be put ...
متن کاملMulti-modal Analysis of Music: A large-scale Evaluation
Multimedia data by definition comprises several different types of content modalities. Music specifically inherits e.g. audio at its core, text in the form of lyrics, images by means of album covers, or video in the form of music videos. Yet, in many Music Information Retrieval applications, only the audio content is utilised. Recent studies have shown the usefulness of incorporating other moda...
