MusicSun: A New Approach to Artist Recommendation
نویسندگان
چکیده
MusicSun is a graphical user interface to discover artists. Artists are recommended based on one or more artists selected by the user. The recommendations are computed by combining 3 different aspects of similarity. The users can change the impact of each of these aspects. In addition words are displayed which describe the artists selected by the user. The user can select one of these words to focus the search on a specific direction. In this paper we present the techniques used to compute the recommendations and the graphical user interface. Furthermore, we present the results of an evaluation with 33 users. We asked them, for example, to judge the usefulness of the different interface components and the quality of the recommendations.

متن کاملAlbum and Artist Effects for Audio Similarity at the Scale of Theweb
In audio based music recommendation, a well known effect is the dominance of songs from the same artist as the query song in recommendation lists.
