Semantic Segmentation and Summarization of Music

Automatic segmentation and summarization of music is a key issue in music browsing, searching and recommendation. This article presents methods for segmenting music based on its tonality and recurrent structure, and summarizing music based on its structure. Experimental results are evaluated quantitatively to demonstrate the promise of the proposed methods.
