Abstract:

We introduce a novel algorithm for music comparison based on intelligent wearable devices. The algorithm includes three steps. First, the note initial point is identified with an average amplitude method, and frequency information obtained with short time Fourier transform according to the characteristics of music. Second, the basic frequency is extracted with subharmonic summation and minimum variance methods to locate music note accurately. Third, the real-time music and standard music are compared both in the frequency and time domains to detect errors in terms of Euclidean distance. Experiments show that the algorithm has low computational complexity, good real-time performance and high accuracy. It is suitable for music comparison based on intelligent wearable device.

Key words: basic frequency extraction, realtime, intelligent wearable device, music comparison, subharmonic summation
