Throughout its history, AI researchers have alternatively seen their mission as producing computer behavior that is indistinguishable from that of humans or as providing computati...
This paper describes a method for melody detection in polyphonic musical signals. Our approach starts by obtaining a set of pitch candidates for each time frame, with recourse to ...
We describe a recursive algorithm to quickly compute the N nearest neighbors according to a similarity measure in a metric space. The algorithm exploits an intrinsic property of a...
The rapid development of web image search engines has enabled users to search hundred million of images available on the Web. However, due to the unsatisfactory performance of cur...
World Wide Web search engines typically return thousands of results to the users. To avoid users browsing through the whole list of results, search engines use ranking algorithms ...
