1 A Mid-Level Representation for Melody-based Retrieval in Audio Collections
"... Abstract — Searching audio collections using high-level musical descriptors is a difficult problem, due to the lack of reliable methods for extracting melody, harmony, rhythm, and other such descriptors from unstructured audio signals. In the paper, we present a novel approach to melody-based retrie ..."

Tune Retrieval Based on The Similarity of Melody
"... A melody-based retrieval of music, which is one type of the content-based retrieval, is proposed in the paper. Every fragment of a melody is represented as an appropriate N-dimensional vector, called a feature vector. A feature vector consists of values corresponding to intervals and rhythm of a mel ..."

Was Parsons right? An experiment in usability of music representations for melody-based music retrieval
, 2003
"... In 1975 Parsons developed his dictionary of musical themes based on a simple contour representation. The motivation was that people with little training in music would be able to identify pieces of music. We decided to test whether people of various levels of musical skill could indeed make use ..."

CALCULATING SIMILARITY OF FOLK SONG VARIANTS WITH MELODY-BASED FEATURES
"... As folk songs live largely through oral transmission, there usually is no standard form of a song- each performance of a folk song may be unique. Different interpretations of the same song are called song variants, all variants of a song belong to the same variant type. In the paper, we explore how ..."

various melody-based features relate to folk song variants. Specifically, we explore whether we can derive a melodic similarity measure that would correlate to variant types in the sense that it would measure songs belonging to the same variant type as more similar, in contrast to songs from different
FEATURES FOR MELODY SPOTTING USING HIDDEN MARKOV MODELS
"... The amount of digitized music stored on personal computers and available on the Internet is growing at a rapid rate. To address the access problem that this creates, we explore adapting HMMbased wordspotting techniques from speech recognition to create a system for melody-based retrieval of songs fr ..."

Classification-based melody transcription
- Machine Learning Journal
, 2006
"... The melody of a musical piece – informally, the part you would hum along with – is a useful and compact summary of a full audio recording. The extraction of melodic content has practical applications ranging from content-based audio retrieval to the analysis of musical structure. Whereas previous sy ..."

A WWW-based melody retrieval system
- In Proc. of Intl. Computer Music Conf
, 1998
"... ABSTRACT: This paper describes a WWW-based melody retrieval system which takes a sung melody as a query and retrieves the song’s title from a music database. In previous works, the pitch information was mainly used as a search clue while the span information was not used effectively, and it was diff ..."

FAST MELODY FINDING BASED ON MEMORABLE TUNES
"... Recent progress of computer and network technologies makes it possible to store and retrieve a large volume of multimedia data in many applications. In such applications, indexing for retrieving multimedia data efficiently plays a important role. Depending on the media type, multimedia data shows di ..."

In this paper, we propose a fast melody finder (FMF) that can retrieve melodies fast from audio database using frequently queried tunes. Those tunes are collected from user queries and organized dynamically into an index. Considering

.2.1). The emergence of audio data types in databases and the rapid increase in speed and capacity of computers require new information retrieval methods dedicated to audio files. Our goal is to let users search musical pieces by melodic audio-content. We developed a pitch-tracking system based on RMS
Melody based tune retrieval over the World Wide Web
, 1998
"... . In this paper we describe the steps taken to develop a Web-based version of an existing stand-alone, single-user digital library application for melodical searching of a collection of music. For the three key components: input, searching, and output, we assess the suitability of various Web-based ..."
