Abstract: Embodiments are described for harmonicity estimation, audio classification, pitch determination and noise estimation. Measuring harmonicity of an audio signal includes calculation a log amplitude spectrum of audio signal. A first spectrum is derived by calculating each component of the first spectrum as a sum of components of the log amplitude spectrum on frequencies. In linear frequency scale, the frequencies are odd multiples of the component's frequency of the first spectrum. A second spectrum is derived by calculating each component of the second spectrum as a sum of components of the log amplitude spectrum on frequencies. In linear frequency scale, the frequencies are even multiples of the component's frequency of the second spectrum. A difference spectrum is derived subtracting the first spectrum from the second spectrum. A measure of harmonicity is generated as a monotonically increasing function of the maximum component of the difference spectrum within predetermined frequency range.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable storage media for k-NN re-ranking. Based on retrieved images and localized objects, a k-NN re-ranking method may use the k-nearest neighbors of a query to refine query results. Given the top k retrieved images and their localized objects, each k-NN object may be used as a query to perform a search. A database image may have different ranks when using those k-nearest neighbors as queries. Accordingly, a new score for each database image may be collaboratively determined by those ranks, and re-ranking may be performed using the new scores to improve the search results. The k-NN re-ranking technique may be performed two or more times, each time on a new set of k-nearest neighbors, to further refine the search results.
