ABSTRACT:
A similar music search method, including: extracting an audio feature value from a compression zone of a music file and generating a music content summary using the extracted audio feature; classifying a mood and a genre of the music file by using the generated music content summary; extracting a similarity feature for a similarity retrieval from the music content summary; storing an information on the classified mood and a genre and the extracted similarity feature information in a database; receiving a query music; detecting the mood and the genre of the query music; measuring a similarity between the query music and music files having a mood and a genre identical to the query music by referring to the database; and retrieving the similar music with respect to the query music based on the measured similarity.
