An Approach to Automatic Music Band Member Detection Based on Supervised Learning

by Peter Knees
(2011)

Abstract

Automatically extracting factual information about musical entities, such as detecting the members of a band, helps building advanced browsing interfaces and recommendation systems. In this paper, a supervised approach to learning to identify and to extract the members of a music band from relatedWeb documents is proposed.While existing methods utilize manually optimized rules for this purpose, the presented technique learns from automatically labelled examples, making therefore also manual annotation obsolete. The presented approach is compared against existing rule-based methods for band-member extraction by performing systematic evaluation on two different test sets.
