Abstract

We may like to listen to particular types of tunes under the particular situation or environment, such as events, weather, time, and place. However, it is not always easy to manually choose such particular types of tunes just by looking at metadata such as titles or artist names. It is effective and enjoyable if such tunes are automatically recommended after learning the tendency of the users. This paper presents MALL (Music Adviser with Life Log), a life log based music recommendation system and portable music player. The system records the history of listened tunes with the situation and environment on the Android-based portable music player. It then discovers association rules between the situation or environments and musical feature values of the tunes. Finally, the system recommends particular types of tunes based on the discovered association rules. We names this system MALL because it advises the tunes based on the life logs of the users.

Musical genre classification of MPEG-4 TwinVQ audio data
ICME '11: Proceedings of the 2011 IEEE International Conference on Multimedia and Expo

We proposed a musical feature based on LSP (Line Spectrum Pair) parameter directly extracted from the bitstream in the MPEG-4 TwinVQ audio data. Our key idea is to extract the musical features by using information stored in the bitstream without ...
Music Playlist Recommender System AFT-IS
ICCAE 2018: Proceedings of the 2018 10th International Conference on Computer and Automation Engineering

Previously, we had proposed a playlist recommendation method to suggest music by considering the change in acoustic features in the song so that the transition between songs becomes smooth. Our previous method uses the last two songs in a playlist to ...
Correlation analysis among the metadata-based similarity, acoustic-based distance, and serendipity of music
IDEAS '15: Proceedings of the 19th International Database Engineering & Applications Symposium

With the aim of realizing a serendipity-oriented music recommendation, we analyzed the correlation between music similarity and serendipity. A user may be familiar with the musical piece if its metadata, such as the artist's names, and the title, is ...
