"Similarity methods for computational ethnomusicology"
In this presentation, we will focus on music of the Eastern Mediterranean, and specifically
on traditional music of Greece and Turkey. We will approach the task: Given a polyphonic
recording of a piece of Cretan traditional dance music, find a recording that is similar to it.
For handling this task, a morphological analysis system is proposed that is adapted to the
repetitive structure of this music. For this system, aspects of rhythm and melody will be
considered, with the focus being characteristics of rhythm. We will describe onset detection,
beat tracking and rhythmic similarity methods that are adequate for this music. For melody,
state-of-the-art approaches for cover song detection and fundamental frequency estimation
from polyphonic signals have been combined. A morphological analysis framework that uses
both rhythm and melody is proposed.
