Automatic Music Genre Classification of Audio Signals with Machine Learning Approaches
Musical genre classification is put into context byexplaining about the structures in music and how it is analyzedand perceived by humans. The increase of the music databaseson the personal collection and the Internet has brought a greatdemand for music information retrieval, and especiallyautomatic musical genre classification. In this research wefocused on combining information from the audio signal thandifferent sources. This paper presents a comprehensivemachine learning approach to the problem of automaticmusical genre classification using the audio signal. Theproposed approach uses two feature vectors, Support vectormachine classifier with polynomial kernel function andmachine learning algorithms. More specifically, two featuresets for representing frequency domain, temporal domain,cepstral domain and modulation frequency domain audiofeatures are proposed. Using our proposed features SVM act asstrong base learner in AdaBoost, so its performance of theSVM classifier cannot improve using boosting method. Thefinal genre classification is obtained from the set of individualresults according to a weighting combination late fusionmethod and it outperformed the trained fusion method. Musicgenre classification accuracy of 78% and 81% is reported onthe GTZAN dataset over the ten musical genres and theISMIR2004 genre dataset over the six musical genres,respectively. We observed higher classification accuracies withthe ensembles, than with the individual classifiers andimprovements of the performances on the GTZAN andISMIR2004 genre datasets are three percent on average. Thisensemble approach show that it is possible to improve theclassification accuracy by using different types of domainbased audio features
Music genre classification using On-line Dictionary Learning
In this paper, an approach for music genre classification based on sparse representation using MARSYAS features is proposed. The MARSYAS feature descriptor consisting of timbral texture, pitch and beat related features is used for the classification of music genre. On-line Dictionary Learning (ODL) is used to achieve sparse representation of the features for developing dictionaries for each musical genre. We demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed framework on the Latin Music Database (LMD) consisting of over 3000 tracks spanning 10 genres namely Axé, Bachata, Bolero, Forró, Gaúcha, Merengue, Pagode, Salsa, Sertaneja and Tango

Improving music genre classification using automatically induced harmony rules
We present a new genre classification framework using both low-level signal-based features and high-level harmony features. A state-of-the-art statistical genre classifier based on timbral features is extended using a first-order random forest containing for each genre rules derived from harmony or chord sequences. This random forest has been automatically induced, using the first-order logic induction algorithm TILDE, from a dataset, in which for each chord the degree and chord category are identified, and covering classical, jazz and pop genre classes. The audio descriptor-based genre classifier contains 206 features, covering spectral, temporal, energy, and pitch characteristics of the audio signal. The fusion of the harmony-based classifier with the extracted feature vectors is tested on three-genre subsets of the GTZAN and ISMIR04 datasets, which contain 300 and 448 recordings, respectively. Machine learning classifiers were tested using 5 × 5-fold cross-validation and feature selection. Results indicate that the proposed harmony-based rules combined with the timbral descriptor-based genre classification system lead to improved genre classification rates

Methodological contributions by means of machine learning methods for automatic music generation and classification
189 p.Ikerketa lan honetan bi gai nagusi landu dira: musikaren sorkuntza automatikoa eta sailkapena. Musikaren sorkuntzarako bertso doinuen corpus bat hartu da abiapuntu moduan doinu ulergarri berriak sortzeko gai den metodo bat sortzeko. Doinuei ulergarritasuna hauen barnean dauden errepikapen egiturek ematen dietela suposatu da, eta metodoaren hiru bertsio nagusi aurkeztu dira, bakoitzean errepikapen horien definizio ezberdin bat erabiliz.Musikaren sailkapen automatikoan hiru ataza garatu dira: generoen sailkapena, familia melodikoen taldekatzea eta konposatzaileen identifikazioa. Musikaren errepresentazio ezberdinak erabili dira ataza bakoitzerako, eta ikasketa automatikoko hainbat teknika ere probatu dira, emaitzarik hoberenak zeinek ematen dituen aztertzeko.Gainbegiratutako sailkapenaren alorrean ere binakako sailkapenaren gainean lana egin da, aurretik existitzen zen metodo bat optimizatuz. Hainbat datu baseren gainean probatu da garatutako teknika, baita konposatzaile klasikoen piezen ezaugarriez osatutako datu base batean ere
