Representing Musical Genre: A State of the Art
Representing Musical Genre: A State of the Art代表音乐流派:一种艺术状态
Musical genre is probably the most popular music descriptor.In the context of large musical databases and Electronic Music Distribution, genre is therefore a crucial metadata for the description of music content. However, genre is intrinsically
ill-defined and attempts at defining genre precisely have a strong tendency to end up in circular, ungrounded projections
of fantasies. Is genre an intrinsic attribute of music titles, as, say, tempo? Or is genre a extrinsic description of the whole piece? In this article, we discuss the various approaches in representing musical genre, and propose to classify these approaches in three main categories: manual,prescriptive and emergent approaches. We discuss the pros and cons of each approach, and illustrate our study with results of the Cuidado IST project.
音乐流派可能是最受欢迎的音乐描述符。因此，在大型音乐数据库和电子音乐发行的背景下，流派是描述音乐内容的重要元数据。 但是，体裁本质上是定义不明确并试图准确定义体裁的趋势很可能最终变成圆形，不接地的投影的幻想。 流派是否是音乐标题的固有属性，例如节奏？ 还是流派是整个作品的外在描述？ 在本文中，我们讨论了代表音乐流派的各种方法，并建议将这些方法分为三个主要类别：手动方法，说明性方法和紧急方法。 我们讨论每种方法的利弊，并以Cuidado IST项目的结果说明我们的研究。
