Using fuzzy logic to handle the users' semantic descriptions in a music retrieval system (2007)
This paper provides an investigation of the potential application of fuzzy logic to semantic music recommendation. We show that a set of affective/emotive, structural and kinaesthetic descriptors can...
Music Information Retrieval. Conceptual Framework, Annotation and User Behaviour (2005)
Interactieve systemen, die automatische toegang tot muzikale informatie mogelijk maken, intrigeren zowat iedereen die in muziek geïnteresseerd is. Het probleem waar allen mee geconfronteerd worden...
Collecting ground truth annotations for drum detection in polyphonic music (2005)
Tanghe, K, Lesaffre, M, Degroeve, S, Leman, M, De Baets, B, Martens, J
In order to train and test algorithms that can automatically detect drum events in polyphonic music, ground truth data is needed. This paper describes a setup used for gathering manual annotations...
Correlation of Gestural Musical Audio Cues (2004)
Leman, M, Vermeulen, V, De Voogdt, L, Moelants, D, Lesaffre, M
An empirical study on the perceived semantic quality of musical content and its relationship with perceived structural audio features is presented. In a first study, subjects have to judge a variety...
T. De Mulder, J. P. Martens, M. Lesaffre, M. Leman, B. De Baets, H. De Meyer
In this paper recent improvements of an existing acoustic frontend for the transcription of vocal (hummed, sung) musical queries is presented. Thanks to the addition of a new second pitch extractor...
Correlation of gestural musical audio cues and perceived expressive qualities (2003)
Leman, M, Vermeulen, V, De Voogdt, L, Taelman, J, Moelants, D, Lesaffre, M
An empirical study on the perceived semantic quality of musical content and its relationship with perceived structural audio features is presented. In a first study, subjects had to judge a variety...
Distance-based versus Tree-based Key Recognition in Musical Audio (2003)
H. De Meyer, B. De Baets, M. Leman, M. Lesaffre, ...
A new method for the recognition of the tonal center or key in a musical audio signal is presented. Time-varying key feature vectors of 264 synthesized sounds are extracted from an auditory-based...
An auditory model based transcriber of singing sequences (2002)
L. P. Clarisse, J. P. Martens, M. Lesaffre, B. De Baets, H. Demeyer, M. Leman
In this paper, a new system for the automatic transcription of singing sequences into a sequence of pitch and duration pairs is presented. Although such a system may have a wider range of...

L. P. Clarisse, J. P. Martens, M. Lesaffre, B. De Baets, H. Demeyer, M. Leman
In this paper, a new system for the automatic transcription of singing sequences into a sequence of pitch and duration pairs is presented. Although such a system may have a wider range of...
Discovering structure and repetition in musical audio (2002)
D. Van Steelant, B. De Baets, H. De Meyer, M. Leman, L. Clarisse, ...
In this paper we propose an algorithm that attempts to derive structure and repetition from a raw audio signal. For this purpose we examine the performance of different feature sets, i.e. energy and...
H. De Meyer, H. Demeyer, B. Debaets, M. Leman, ...
We discuss a method to retrieve tonality-oriented information from a musical audio signal and to convert this information into a meaningful character sequence. The construction of a timevarying...
