Abstracts of the presentations
|
Whether derived automatically from contents (audio, score...) by extracting a variety of features (samples, notes, melody, form, lyrics...), or produced manually by specialists (e.g., as in libraries), supplemented with such mechanisms as authority control, and put in relation with musical documents and documentation, very powerful music searching tools may be developed.
