Abstract
In this paper, we present a method for querying desired songs from music database by humming a tune. Since errors are inevitable in humming, tolerance should be considered. In order to suit or adapt to people’s humming habit, a new melody representation and new hierarchical matching method are proposed in this paper. Query processing and database processing algorithm are also described in detail. The proposed approach achieves high performance in experimental evaluation. For 88% queries, the correct song can be retrieved among the top 10 matches.
