  • Analyzing changes in vocal power within music content using frequency spectrums
    Patent number: 10043538
    Abstract: Technologies are described for identifying familiar or interesting parts of music content by analyzing changes in vocal power using frequency spectrums. For example, a frequency spectrum can be generated from digitized audio. Using the frequency spectrum, the harmonic content and percussive content can be separated. The vocal content can then be separated from the harmonic and/or percussive content. The vocal content can then be processed to identify surge points in the digitized audio. In some implementations, the vocal content is included in the harmonic content during the separation procedure and is then separated from the harmonic content.
