....but they must still start and finish at the same time. Polyphonic music adds yet another complication. A note may begin before a previous note finishes. Feature extraction can be thought of as representation conversion, taking low level representation and identifying higher level features [6]. Features at one level may build upon features at a lower level. The techniques employed range from string matching algorithms familiar to a computer scientist to deep structure approaches more familiar to a music theorist. The goal, however, is not an understanding of music. It is not to ....
....time [32] such features are rich enough. However, other retrieval approaches require larger basic features. Longer sequences, or n grams, are constructed from an initial sequence of interval or ratio unigrams. One of the simpler approaches to n gram extraction is the use of sliding windows [16, 6]. The sequence of notes within a length window are converted to a sequence of relative unigrams. Numerous authors suggest a tradeoff between unigram type and n gram size. Where more precise (exact magnitude) unigrams are used, ngrams remain shorter, perhaps not to sacrifice recall. Where more ....
