Advances in technology, such as MP3 players, the Internet and DVDs,
have led to the production, storage and distribution of a wealth of
audio signals, including speech, music and more general sound
signals and their combinations. MPEG-7 audio tools were created to
enable the navigation of this data, by providing an established
framework for effective multimedia management. MPEG-7 Audio and
Beyond: Audio Content Indexing and Retrieval is a unique
insight into the technology, covering the following topics:
* the fundamentals of MPEG-7 audio, principally low-level
descriptors and sound classification and similarity;
* spoken content description, and timbre, melody and tempo music
description tools;
* existing MPEG-7 applications and those currently being
developed;
* examples of audio technology beyond the scope of MPEG-7.
Essential reading for practising electronic and communications
engineers designing and implementing MPEG-7 compliant systems, this
book will also be a useful reference for researchers and graduate
students working with multimedia database technology.
