A fast audio search method based on skipping irrelevant signals by similarity upper-bound calculation

摘要

In this paper, we describe an approach to accelerate fingerprint techniques by skipping the search for irrelevant sections of the signal and demonstrate its application to the divide and locate (DAL) audio fingerprint method. The search result for the applied method, DAL3, is the same as that of DAL mathematically. Experimental results show that DAL3 can reduce the computational cost of DAL to approximately 25% for the task of music signal retrieval.
