This survey paper provides an overview of content-based music information retrieval
systems, both for audio and for symbolic music notation. Matching algorithms and indexing …

A huge increase in the number of digital music tracks has created the necessity to develop
an automated tool to extract the useful information from these tracks. As this information has …

We present a new algorithm for a robust family of Earth Mover's Distances-EMDs with
thresholded ground distances. The algorithm transforms the flow-network of the EMD so that …

The steep rise in music downloading over CD sales has created a major shift in the music
industry away from physical media formats and towards online products and services. Music …

The original edition of The Geometry of Musical Rhythm was the first book to provide a
systematic and accessible computational geometric analysis of the musical rhythms of the …

During recent years much effort has been spent in incorporating problem specific a-priori
knowledge into kernel methods for machine learning. A common example is a-priori …

Measuring the similarity between rhythms is a fundamental problem in computational music
theory, with many applications such as music information retrieval and copyright …

La classification automatique de la musique est un vaste domaine de recherche,
multidisciplinaire par nature, et qui donne lieu à des avancées significatives tant du point de …

The task of similarity search is widely used in various areas of computing, including
multimedia databases, data mining, bioinformatics, social networks, etc. In fact, retrieval of …

Musical rhythm is considered from the point of view of geometry. The interaction between the
two fields yields new insights into rhythm and music theory, as well as new problems for …
