Original Kurzfassung:
In this paper, we will test the importance of music complexity
as a factor for melody recognition in multi voiced popular music.
The assumption is that the melody (or lead instrument) will contain the
largest amount of information – will be less redundant than the rest.
Measures of melodic complexity of pitch and timing are proposed. We
test the different complexity measures and different prediction strategies,
and evaluate them on the task of predicting which track of a MIDI file
that contains the main melody. Filtering out melody tracks can be useful
when searching large databases for similar songs. 108 melody track
annotated pop songs were included in the experiment.
