摘要： The invention enables to generate a general function (4) which can operate on an input signal (Sx) to extract from the latter a value (DVex) of a global characteristic value expressing a feature (De) of the information conveyed by that signal.It operates by: generating at least one compound function (CF1-CFn), said compound function being generated from at least one of a set of elementary functions (EF1, EF2, . . . ) by considering the elementary functions as symbolic objects, operating said compound function on at least one reference signal (S1-Sm) having a pre-attributed global characteristic value (Dgt1-Dgtm) serving for evaluation, by processing (22, 27) the elementary functions as executable operators, determining the matching between: i) the value(s) (Dij) extracted by said compound function as a result of operating on said reference signal and, ii) the pre-attributed global characteristic value (Dgt1-Dgtm) of said reference signal, and selecting at least one compound function on the basis of the matching to produce the general extraction function. The invention can be used, for instance, for the automatic extraction of audio/music descriptors from their signals contained as music file data.

摘要： A content-management interface is implemented using superposition of graphical “widget” elements onto an on-screen display of the real-time image of a user. The widgets are motion-sensitive control elements which are responsive to user movement that produces motion of the user's displayed image at an on-screen location associated with that widget. The user can operate the widget virtually, for example by moving his hand over a widget, or pushing a widget along. Meta-data descriptive of the content to be managed is mapped onto widgets, enabling the user to interact with the meta-data, notably by changing it or by selecting content with reference to it.

摘要： The invention relates to a method of extracting a representation of its rhythmic structure, from a given signal. The representation is designed to yield a similarity relation between item titles. There is thus provided a method of extracting the numeric representation of a rhythmic structure for a given item of audio signal, from a database including percussive sounds in an audio signal, comprising the steps of: a) defining said rhythmic structure as a superposition of time series, each of said time series representing a temporal contribution for one of said percussive sounds in an audio signal; b) processing said input signal through a spectral analysis technique, so as to select said rhythmic information contained in said input signal; c) constructing said numeric representation of a rhythmic structure of said input signal by combining a plurality of initial time series; and d) reducing said rhythmic information contained in said plurality of time series by analyzing correlations products thereof, thereby extracting a reduced rhythmic information for an item of audio signal. The method may be combined with the step of e) effecting a distance measure between the items of audio signal on the basis of said reduced rhythmic information, whereby an item of audio signal having similar rhythm is selected.

摘要： Audio samples corresponding to audio extracts or whole audio titles are automatically mapped to triggers 12 in a playable sound-producing device 1, the mapping being dependent on the meta-data associated with the audio samples. Thus, a user can play the sound-producing device and generate sounds derived from his favorite audio titles. It is possible to define different mappings between the audio samples and the playable domain of the sound-producing device: an audio sample selector 50 can select between different possible samples for playback by comparing the audio properties of the samples and the play-mode and/or characteristics of the user's performance. An audio sampler/sample-processor 70 can automatically extract segments of an audio source file and map them to triggers in the sound-producing device 1.

摘要： An animal-machine audio interaction system includes a sound monitor for monitoring the sounds made by one or more animals, a sound segmenter for identifying coherent sound segments within the sounds made by the animal(s), a sound analyzer for analyzing and assigning a category to each sound segment, an output sound selector for selecting an output sound appropriate to the category assigned by the sound analyzer, and a sound output unit for outputting the selected output sound to the animal(s). A different control protocol may be used to define the categories assigned to the animal sounds and to determine the respective audio responses that are appropriate to the different sound categories. During operation of the system, a closed-loop audio interaction is set up between the animal(s) and the system. This interaction may be used for various purposes, such as investigating animal behavior, entertaining the animal(s) and controlling animal behavior.

摘要： A new type of Markovian sequence generator and generation method generates a Markovian sequence having controllable properties, notably properties that satisfy at least one control criterion which is a computable requirement holding on items in the sequence. The Markovian sequence is generated chunkwise, each chunk containing a plurality of items in the sequence. During generation of each chunk a search is performed in the space of Markovian sequences to find a chunk-sized series of items which enables the control criterion to be satisfied. The search can be performed using a generate and test approach in which chunk-sized Markovian sequences are generated then tested for compliance with the requirement(s) of the control criteria. Alternatively, the search can be performed by formulating the sequence-generation task as a constraint satisfaction problem, with one or more constraints ensuring that the generated sequence is Markovian and one or more constraints enforcing the requirement(s) of the control criteria. The sequence generator can be used in an interactive system where a user specifies the control criterion via an inputting device (20).

摘要： The invention allows to generate music as a real time continuation of an input sequence of music data, through a continuation phase comprising the steps of: detecting the occurrence of an end of a current input sequence of music data (12), and starting to generate said continuation upon the detected occurrence of an end of a current input sequence of music data. The data rate of the current input sequence of music data can be determined so as to time the start of the continuation substantially in phase with the determined data rate such that the transition from an end of the current input sequence to the starting of the continuation is substantially seamless.The start portion of the generated continuation can be selected from a learnt input sequence which contains the terminal portion of the current input sequence up to the detected end and which has an identified continuation therefor, when such a learnt sequence is found to exist, such that a concatenation of the terminal portion and the start portion forms a data sequence contained in said learnt sequence.

摘要： The method serves to automatically identify in a set of data sequences at least one specific type of information contained in each data sequence of the set, wherein the type of information has an unknown presentation in the data sequences. It comprises the steps of: initially defining at least one characteristic feature of the specific type of information, and of expressing the characteristic feature(s) in terms of at least one recognition rule executable by processor means (2), applying the recognition rule(s) through the processor means to analyze the set of data sequences, determining in each data sequence a data portion thereof satisfying the recognition rule(s), and identifying the data portion as corresponding to the specific type of information. The invention can be used notably for automatically processing the contents of music file names, where the data sequence corresponds to the characters for a music file, and the specific information types are an artist name and/or music title contained in some arbitrary form and order in the file name.
