A Comprehensive Survey of Personalized Music Identifier System

Abstract: Music occupies a very important space in the heart and life of common people and it is rather subjective and universal nature indeed. Music Identifier System is obviously concerned with providing a very meaningful and personalized recommendation of items i.e. songs, music, playlist according to the mood, emotion, interest and preference of the users or listeners. With the advancement of technologies, rapid development of internet, it has become very common to use the streaming services to listen and enjoy music or songs in more convenient ways. In this paper, an attempt has been made to perform a comparative analysis, systematic research, empirical thorough review on various approaches or strategies proposed and applied by different researchers in the task of designing an effective system for music identification or recommendation. The basic theme of the paper includes music identifier system, its components, and different features along with emphasize on the methods, metrics, general framework and state-of-art strategies proposed during the last two decades or so, have been empirically reviewed. The existing studies were found lacking with systematic research work on the behaviour, requirements and preferences of the users plus poor level of extraction of features and limitations in the area of evaluation of performance of the music identifier systems. Although, the study reveals that systems based on effective, social information, emotional-traits, content, context and knowledge have been widely applied and improved the quality of identification or recommendation of music to a large extend but still it is not enough. In future, more in-depth studies or research work need to be conducted based on enlarging the scope of further development of personalized contextual awareness based music identifier system and generating a continuous and automatic top playlist of music and songs with added tracks matching with profile, mood, emotional traits, and behaviour of the user in a mobile environment.Published By: Blue Eyes Intelligence Engineering and Sciences Publication (BEIESP) © Copyright: All rights reserved
