Web服务允许永久访问来自世界各地的音乐。特别是在具有用户提供的内容的web服务的情况下，例如，YouTube（TM），可用的元数据往往不完整或错误。另一方面，大量的高质量和音乐相关的元数据已被注释在研究领域，如音乐信息检索（MIR）。虽然它们有很大的潜力，但这些音乐注释通常无法被学术界以外的用户访问。通过我们的贡献，我们希望通过在研究语料库中提供音乐注释来丰富公共可用的多媒体内容，同时保持对底层数据的轻松访问，来弥合这一差距。我们基于网络的工具为研究人员和音乐爱好者提供了与内容互动和导航的新可能性。在本文中，我们认为一个研究语料库称为魏玛爵士乐数据库（WJD）作为一个说明性的例子场景。WJD包含与著名爵士乐独奏相关的各种注释。首先，我们采用现有的检索技术建立WJD注释和相应的YouTube视频之间的链接。通过这些技术，我们能够识别出WJD中包含的456个独奏中的329个独奏的988个相应的YouTube视频。然后，我们将检索到的视频嵌入到最近开发的基于Web的平台中，并使用WJD的一部分单独translation来丰富视频。此外，我们整合了公共可用的数据资源，从语义网，以扩展所呈现的信息，例如，与详细的唱片或艺术家相关的信息。我们的贡献说明了现代网络技术的数字人文的潜力，以及改善数字化多媒体内容的访问和互动的新方法。
Web services allow permanent access to music from all over the world. Especially in the case of web services with user-supplied content, e.g., YouTube(TM), the available metadata is often incomplete or erroneous. On the other hand, a vast amount of high-quality and musically relevant metadata has been annotated in research areas such as Music Information Retrieval (MIR). Although they have great potential, these musical annotations are ofter inaccessible to users outside the academic world. With our contribution, we want to bridge this gap by enriching publicly available multimedia content with musical annotations available in research corpora, while maintaining easy access to the underlying data. Our web-based tools offer researchers and music lovers novel possibilities to interact with and navigate through the content. In this paper, we consider a research corpus called the Weimar Jazz Database (WJD) as an illustrating example scenario. The WJD contains various annotations related to famous jazz solos. First, we establish a link between the WJD annotations and corresponding YouTube videos employing existing retrieval techniques. With these techniques, we were able to identify 988 corresponding YouTube videos for 329 solos out of 456 solos contained in the WJD. We then embed the retrieved videos in a recently developed web-based platform and enrich the videos with solo transcriptions that are part of the WJD. Furthermore, we integrate publicly available data resources from the Semantic Web in order to extend the presented information, for example, with a detailed discography or artists-related information. Our contribution illustrates the potential of modern web-based technologies for the digital humanities, and novel ways for improving access and interaction with digitized multimedia content.
