CAREER: Analyzing the Sequential Structure of Music Audio

该提案提供了一种使用信号处理和谐波方法进行自动音乐音频分析的创新方法。这是对基于西方声调音乐档案中孤立和弦序列的音乐信息检索(MIR)领域的贡献。该方法在一定程度上模仿了生物信息学的工作，特别是结构比对的工作。这项拟议的工作意在扩展目前的音乐分析方法，这些方法由于对音乐创作的一个关键方面--时间性的关注不够而受到限制。提出了一种用于和弦和弦序列分离的新的信号处理方法。

The proposal offers an innovative approach to automatic music audio analysis using signal processing and harmonic methods. This is a contribution to the field of Music Information Retrieval (MIR) based on isolating chord sequences in western tonal music archives. The approach is modeled in part on work in bioinformatics, particularly work in structure alignment. The proposed work intends to expand on current approaches to music analysis whcih are limited because of insufficient attention to temporality - a key aspect of musical composition. A new signal processing method is proposed for the isolation of chords and chord sequences.
