Clustering of scene repeats for essential rushes preview
This paper focuses on a specific type of unedited video content, called rushes, which are used for movie editing and usually present a high-level of redundancy. Our goal is to automatically extract a summarized preview, where redundant material is diminished without discarding any important event. To achieve this, rushes content has been first analysed and modeled. Then different clustering techniques on shot key-frames are presented and compared in order to choose the best representative segments to enter the preview. Experiments performed on TRECVID data are evaluated by computing the mutual information between the obtained results and a manually annotated ground-truth

The Music Sound
A guide for music: compositions, events, forms, genres, groups, history, industry, instruments, language, live music, musicians, songs, musicology, techniques, terminology , theory, music video.
Music is a human activity which involves structured and audible sounds, which is used for artistic or aesthetic, entertainment, or ceremonial purposes.
The traditional or classical European aspects of music often listed are those elements given primacy in European-influenced classical music: melody, harmony, rhythm, tone color/timbre, and form. A more comprehensive list is given by stating the aspects of sound: pitch, timbre, loudness, and duration.
Common terms used to discuss particular pieces include melody, which is a succession of notes heard as some sort of unit; chord, which is a simultaneity of notes heard as some sort of unit; chord progression, which is a succession of chords (simultaneity succession); harmony, which is the relationship between two or more pitches; counterpoint, which is the simultaneity and organization of different melodies; and rhythm, which is the organization of the durational aspects of music
