Abstract

Content-based genre classification Sparse approximation Feature selection
In this study we evaluated the performance of genre classification systems using various feature vectors and learning methods. Using a fixed classifier, i.e., the Gaussian mixture models we were able to create a suboptimal feature vector to characterize the audio signals in a low dimensional feature space. We then utilized this modified feature representation to solve the problem of music genre classification. We evaluated the performance of the recent sparsity-eager support vector machines classifier using the proposed feature vector and compared the results to the classic support vector machines and Gaussian mixture models as the baseline classifiers.
