In this paper, in order to protect music copyrights, we propose a music identification system which is scalable to the number of pieces of registered music and robust to signal-level variations of registered music. For its implementation, we define the new concepts of 'music word' and 'music phoneme' as recognition units to construct 'music acoustic models'. Then, with these concepts, we apply the HMM-based framework used in continuous speech recognition to identify the music. Each music file is transformed to a sequence of 39-dimensional vectors. This sequence of vectors is represented as ordered states with Gaussian mixtures. These ordered states are trained using Baum-Welch re-estimation method. Music files with a suspicious copyright are also transformed to a sequence of vectors. Then, the most probable music file is identified using Viterbi algorithm through the music identification network. We implemented a music identification system for 1,000 MP3 music files and tested this system with variations in terms of MP3 bit rate and music speed rate. Our proposed music identification system demonstrates robust performance to signal variations. In addition, scalability of this system is independent of the number of registered music files, since our system is based on HMM method.

This studied investigated children's music identification, classification, and seriation cognitive task performance abilities by age and sex. The subjects were l20 six-, eight-, and ten-year-old school children. There were significant positive correlations among music cognition tasks and significant age and sex differences within each of the music tasks. Ten-year-old children were more likely to complete their music identification tasks than the younger children and girls were more likely than boys to complete their music identification tasks. Eight- and 10-year-old children were more likely to complete their music classification tasks than the younger group. Piagetian stage theory was demonstrated in children's music classification task performance. There was an age-related increase in the performance of the music seriation tasks. Developmental sequential theory was demonstrated in music seriation performance.

Music functions as a catalyst for various emotional experiences. Among the numerous genres of music, film music has been reported to induce strong emotional responses. However, the effectiveness of film music in evoking different types of emotions and its relationship in terms of which musical elements contribute to listeners' perception of intended emotion have been rarely investigated. The purpose of this study was to examine the congruence between the intended emotion and the perceived emotion of listeners in film music listening and to identify musical characteristics of film music that correspond with specific types of emotion. Additionally, the study aimed to investigate possible relationships between participants' identification responses and personal musical experience. A total of 147 college students listened to twelve 15-second music excerpts and identified the perceived emotion during music listening. The results showed a high degree of congruence between the intended emotion in film music and the participants' perceived emotion. Existence of tonality and modality were found to play an important role in listeners' perception of intended emotion. The findings suggest that identification of perceived emotion in film music excerpts was congruent regardless of individual differences. Specific music components that led to high congruence are further discussed.

음악 유사도 계산은 음악 검색 서비스 구현에서 중요한 구성 요소 중 하나이다. 본 논문은 커버곡 검색 성능을 제고하기 위해서, 크로마그램 벡터 별로 커버곡 검색 적합도를 구하여 음악 유사도 계산 시 가중치로 활용한다. 커버곡 검색 적합도는 확률 적합도 모델을 이용하여 구한다. 커버곡 검색에 도움이 될 수 있는 분별도가 높은 벡터에 높은 가중치를 부여하고, 흔하게 존재하여 분별도가 떨어지는 벡터에 낮은 가중치를 부여하는 방식으로 음악 유사도 함수를 유도한다. 두 가지 커버곡 실험 데이터셋에서 성능 비교를 수행하여 제안한 음악 유사도 함수가 커버곡 검색 성능을 개선시킬 수 있음을 보였다.

음악 유사도 계산은 음악 검색 서비스 구현에서 가장 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 본 논문은 커버곡 검색의 성능을 제고하기 위한 음악 유사도 학습에 대해서 다룬다. 음악 유사도 함수를 유도하는 데 확률적 선형 판별 분석을 이용하여 잠재 음악 공간을 구한다. 잠재 음악 공간은 같은 커버곡 간의 거리는 줄이고 다른 곡 간의 거리는 크게 되도록 학습한다. 추출된 음악 특징이 잠재 음악 변수에서 생성되었다는 가정 하에 확률 모델을 구하고, 음악의 동질성 여부를 가설검증하여 음악 유사도 함수를 유도한다. 두 가지 커버곡 실험 데이터셋에서 성능 비교를 수행하여 제안한 음악 유사도 함수가 커버곡 검색 성능을 개선시킬 수 있음을 보였다.

In this study, we investigated longitudinal music perception of adult cochlear implant (CI) users and how acoustic stimulation with CI affects their music performance. A total of 163 participants' data were analyzed retrospectively. 96 participants were using acoustic stimulation with CI and 67 participants were using electrical stimulation only via CI. The music performance (melody identification, appreciation, and satisfaction) data were collected pre-implantation, 1-year, and 2-year post-implantation. Mixed repeated measures of ANOVA and pairwise analysis adjusted by Tukey were used for the statistics. As result, in both groups, there were significant improvements in melody identification, music appreciation, and music satisfaction at 1-year, and 2-year post-implantation than a pre-implantation, but there was no significant difference between 1 and 2 years in any of the variables. Also, the group of acoustic stimulation with CI showed better perception skill of melody identification than the CI-only group. However, no differences found in music appreciation and satisfaction between the two groups, and possible explanations were discussed. In conclusion, acoustic and/or electrical hearing devices benefit the recipients in music performance over time. Although acoustic stimulation accompanied with electrical stimulation could benefit the recipients in terms of listening skills, those benefits may not extend to the subjective acceptance of music. These results suggest the need for improved sound processing mechanisms and music rehabilitation.

Background and Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of music training on the characteristics of auditory perception of speech and music. The perception of speech and music stimuli was assessed across their respective stimulus continuum and the resultant plots were compared between musicians and non-musicians. Subjects and Methods: Thirty musicians with formal music training and twenty-seven non-musicians participated in the study (age: 20 to 30 years). They were assessed for identification of consonant-vowel syllables (/da/ to /ga/), vowels (/u/ to /a/), vocal music note (/ri/ to /ga/), and instrumental music note (/ri/ to /ga/) across their respective stimulus continuum. The continua contained 15 tokens with equal step size between any adjacent tokens. The resultant identification scores were plotted against each token and were analyzed for presence of categorical boundary. If the categorical boundary was found, the plots were analyzed by six parameters of categorical perception; for the point of 50% crossover, lower edge of categorical boundary, upper edge of categorical boundary, phoneme boundary width, slope, and intercepts. Results: Overall, the results showed that both speech and music are perceived differently in musicians and non-musicians. In musicians, both speech and music are categorically perceived, while in non-musicians, only speech is perceived categorically. Conclusions: The findings of the present study indicate that music is perceived categorically by musicians, even if the stimulus is devoid of vocal tract features. The findings support that the categorical perception is strongly influenced by training and results are discussed in light of notions of motor theory of speech perception.

음악에 대한 선호도는 다양한 요소들에 의해 결정되며, 추천의 이유를 보여주는 특성을 발굴하는 것은 음악 추천에 있어 중요하다. 본 논문은 가수 인식 작업을 통해 학습한 모델을 활용하여 다양한 음악적 특성을 반영하는 요소들 중 가수의 목소리 특성을 추출하는 방법을 제안한다. 배경음이 포함된 음원 역시 활용할 수 있지만, 음원에 포함된 배경음은 네트워크가 가수의 목소리를 온전하게 인식하는 것을 방해할 수 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 연구에서는 음원 분리를 통해 배경음을 분리하는 사전 작업을 수행하고자 하며, SiSEC에 등장해 검증된 모델 구조를 활용하여 분리된 보컬로 이루어진 데이터 세트를 생성한다. 최종적으로 분리된 보컬을 활용하여 아티스트의 목소리를 반영하는 음색 기반 음악 특성을 발굴하고자 하며, 배경음이 분리되지 않은 음원을 활용한 기존 방법과의 비교를 통해 음원 분리의 효과를 알아보고자 한다.

To identify the locations and strengths of acoustic sources, one may use a microphone line array. Apparent advantage of the source identification method utilizing a line array is that it requires less measurement points than intensity method and holography. This method is based on the information of magnitude and phase difference between pressure signals at each microphone. Since those differences are dependent on the source model, we have to assume them such as plane, monopole, etc. In this paper the conventional source identification methods such as beamforming method and MUSIC method are briefly reviewed by modeling a source as plane and spherical wave, then a modified method is introduced. This can be applied to sound field which may by either coherent or incoherent. Typical simulations and experiment are performed to confirm this identification method.
