  • "Name That Song!" a Probabilistic Approach to Querying on Music And
    “Name That Song!”: A Probabilistic Approach to Querying on Music and Text Eric Brochu Nando de Freitas Department of Computer Science Department of Computer Science University of British Columbia University of British Columbia Vancouver, BC, Canada Vancouver, BC, Canada [email protected] [email protected] Abstract We present a novel, flexible statistical approach for modelling music and text jointly. The approach is based on multi-modal mixture models and maximum a posteriori estimation using EM. The learned models can be used to browse databases with documents containing music and text, to search for music using queries consisting of music and text (lyrics and other contextual information), to annotate text documents with music, and to automatically recommend or identify similar songs. 1 Introduction Variations on “name that song”-types of games are popular on radio programs. DJs play a short excerpt from a song and listeners phone in to guess the name of the song. Of course, callers often get it right when DJs provide extra contextual clues (such as lyrics, or a piece of trivia about the song or band). We are attempting to reproduce this ability in the context of information retrieval (IR). In this paper, we present a method for querying with words and/or music. We focus on monophonic and polyphonic musical pieces of known structure (MIDI files, full music notation, etc.). Retrieving these pieces in multimedia databases, such as the Web, is a problem of growing interest [1, 2]. A significant step was taken by Downie [3], who applied standard text IR techniques to retrieve music by, initially, converting music to text format.

Broccoli hot dogs. Q. For parents struggling to get their kids to eat vegetables, what dish would you recommend and how is it prepared? A. It’s not just kids. Everyone’s struggling to eat vegetables because they feel like they should be eating them, but you can’t cook vegetables like meat and expect them to turn out delicious.

  • From Mocha Dick to Moby Dick: Fishing for Clues to Moby's Name and Color
    From Mocha Dick to Moby Dick: Fishing for Clues to Moby's Name and Color Ben Rogers University of Delaware Melville's fictional whale Moby Dick appears to derive from the real whale Mocha Dick, yet the differences in names and colors between these two suggest that Moby's name may be intimately connected to his symbolic role. One meaning of mob is 'to wrap in a cowl or veil'. Creating an adjective by adding -y produces moby 'having the qualities of being hooded, especially about the head', a definition reflected in Ishmael's "grand hooded phantom." Dick may be a shortening of Dickens, a euphemism for the devil. Dick may also suggest Dicky 'an officer acting on commission', an appropriate meaning for Ahab' s and Starbuck's conception of Moby as God or an agent of God. Lexicons available to Melville reveal the meaning of the name and illuminate the characteriza- tion of Moby as both commodity and Zeus of the sea, both "dumb brute" and divine Leviathan. The 1929 discovery of a narrative about a white whale named Mocha Dick began 70 years of speculation as to the extent of Mocha as Moby's prototype. The narrative, written by J.R. Reynolds in 1839, described a "renowned monster, who had come off victorious in a hundred fights ... [and was] white as wool." Typical of the reaction of literary critics at the time was Garnett's remark that "Moby Dick ... was but Mocha Dick in faery fiction dressed" (1929, 858). Critical editions of Moby-Dick often include the Reynold's narrative and today scholars generally agree that Melville probably knew of Mocha.1 The obvious sibling qualities of the two whales has tended to center onomastic study on the name Mocha Dick, and subsequent research has attempted to demonstrate that Melville knew of Mocha Dick or, assuming this, to explain why Mocha changed to Moby.
