MIR Workshop 2011 Day 5 Lab on Music Recommendation
Douglas Eck, Google
Overview
This lab covers the construction of parts of a music recommender. Focus is placed on building a similarity matrix from data and querying that matrix based on cosine distance. Fast programmers should be able to accomplish considerably more.
- The basics (some Python code available to help).
- Calculate acoustic features on CAL500 dataset (students should have already done this.)
- Read in user tag annotations for the same dataset provided by UCSD.
- Build similarity matrix based on word vectors derived from these annotations.
- Query similarity matrix with a track to get top hits based on cosine distance.
- Build second similarity matrix using acoustic features.
- Query this similarity matrix with track to get top hits based on cosine distance.
- Extra (I didn't write code for this, but can help students find examples).
- Query the EchoNest for additional acoustic features and compare to yours.
- Use the CAL500 user annotations as ground truth and evaluate your audio features (ROC curve or some precision measure).
- Compare a 2D visualization of acoustic features versus UCSD user annotations.
Lab code is found in /usr/ccrma/courses/mir20110/cal500_new. A previous version was uploaded at /usr/ccrma/courses/mir2011/cal500 but it was using filenames from my University of Montreal lab. I renamed audio files to match those of UCSD Cal500
