#REDIRECT [[Fingerprinting]] |
|||
Audio fingerprints are identifiers for audio files based on the contained audio data. |
|||
Up to early 2006 [[MusicBrainz]] has used Relatable's [[TRM]], which is an algorithm matching files by audio fingerprints. However, we have been [[Getting Rid Of TRM|GettingRidOfTRM]], because we have reached the limits of scalability, and performance is not as good as we would like. Because the server is closed-source, we have no way to fix either of these problems. |
|||
For a short while we debated whether we should attempt to build our own open source [[Future Proof Fingerprint|FutureProofFingerPrint]]ing technology, but nobody was there who could have done the work. |
|||
Since March 2006 [[MusicBrainz]] collaborates with [[MusicIP]] who operate the [[MusicDNS]] service. Their (proprietary but much better) [[PUID]]s have been integrated into the Picard 0.7.0. See [[PUID]] and [[How PUIDs Work|HowPUIDsWork]] for details. |

==Known Audio Fingerprinting Systems== |
|||
===Open source systems:=== |
|||
* The fingerprint in Kurt Rosenfeld's [http://www.w140.com/audio/ FDMF]. |
|||
* Freetantrum songprint <br/>There is a project called [http://sourceforge.net/projects/freetantrum freetantrum] on Sourceforge. It seems to be a dead project (its home page was replaced with an advert for unrelated things in 2001), but it may be worth investigating and resurrecting the code they produced. |
|||
* MusicURI, a project trying to combine audio fingerprinting with text based search. More info on project [http://semedia.deit.univpm.it/musicuri/ homepage]. The GPL source code is available at [http://sourceforge.net/projects/mpeg7audiodb SourceForge]. |
|||
* A possible [[Future Proof Fingerprint|FutureProofFingerPrint]] algorithm that we could code has been Proposed by Geoff Schmidt, formally of Tuneprint. |
|||
* [http://www.foosic.org/libfooid.php libFooID], an audio fingerprinting library used by, and developed for [http://www.foosic.org/ foosic]. |
|||
===Commercial systems:=== |
|||
* Relatable's [[TRM]] <br/> The system [[MusicBrainz]] originally used. The use of TRM has since been removed from MusicBrainz. |
|||
* [[MusicIP]]'s [[PUID]] (formerly [[MusicMagic]]/Predixis)<br/>The [[PUID]] technology has been integrated into the [[MusicBrainz]] since March 2006 and into Picard since version 0.7.0 released in July 2007. See their [http://www.freshpatents.com/Audio-fingerprinting-system-and-method-dt20050324ptan20050065976.php patent application] for details on the technology. |
|||
* AudibleMagic <br/>[http://www.econtentmag.com/Articles/ArticleReader.aspx?ArticleID=4473&IssueID=128 This article] compares business models for Philips & Audible Magic |
|||
* Philips (also licensed by SNOCAP) <br/>[http://ismir2002.ismir.net/proceedings/02-FP04-2.pdf http://ismir2002.ismir.net/proceedings/02-FP04-2.pdf] [http://ict.ewi.tudelft.nl/pub/doets/paper027.pdf http://ict.ewi.tudelft.nl/pub/doets/paper027.pdf] [http://wwwiti.cs.uni-magdeburg.de/iti_amsl/lehre/03_SoSem/mmsec_v/scripte/vorles-mm-03-6.3.pdf This presentation] (in PDF) has a few slides on the Philips system as well: |

* [http://spiedl.aip.org/getabs/servlet/GetabsServlet?prog=normal&id=PSISDG005242000001000055000001&idtype=cvips&gifs=yes USC] |
|||
* AudioID: <br/>[http://www.idmt.fraunhofer.de/eng/research_topics/audioid.htm On the Fraunhofer IDMT site], [http://www.m2any.com/ site of the AudioID company] |
|||
* [http://www.shazam.com/music/portal/sp/s/media-type/html/user/anon/page/default/template/pages/p/company_profile.html Shazam] have their own proprietary music fingerprinting system, currently offered directly to users over the telephone. |

* And possibly most ridiculously of all: [http://www.songtapper.com/s/tappingmain.bin The Song Tapper] |
