支持对古典音乐的理解是一个涉及文本分析和声学分析等多个研究领域的重要课题。内容描述是对古典音乐作品的解释，帮助人们理解音乐的技术方面。最近，Kuribayashi et al.提出了一种从Web上获取内容描述的方法。然而，单个页面上的内容描述通常只解释作文中的spe-cific部分。因此，一个想要完全理解作曲的人面临着一项耗时的任务，这对于古典音乐新手来说似乎几乎是不可能的。为了整合从多个页面获得的内容描述，我们提出了一种对齐描述的每一对段落的方法。使用基于动态时间弯曲的方法和我们的新思想，(A)基于分布的距离度量w2DD，和(B)段落表达式的概念，可以比使用尖端文本分析方法更好地对齐古典音乐的内容描述。我们的方法可以在未来的研究中扩展，以创建将描述与乐谱和表演相结合的应用系统。
Supporting the understanding of classical music is an important topic that involves various research fields such as text analysis and acoustics analysis. Content descriptions are explanations of classical music compositions that help a person to understand technical aspects of the music. Recently, Kuribayashi et al. proposed a method for obtaining content descriptions from the web. However, the content descriptions on a single page frequently explain a spe-cific part of a composition only. Therefore, a person who wants to fully understand the composition suffers from a time-consuming task, which seems almost impossible for a novice of classical music. To integrate the content descriptions obtained from multiple pages, we propose a method for aligning each pair of paragraphs of such descriptions. Using dynamic time warping-based method along with our new ideas, (a) a distribution-based distance measure named w2DD , and (b) the concept of passage expressions , it is possible to align content descriptions of classical music better than when using cutting-edge text analysis methods. Our method can be extended in future studies to create applications systems to integrate descriptions with musical scores and performances.
