Neural network based model for classification of music type

Abstract

We can easily tell which type of music, like pop or classic, is played after listening to a few seconds of the music. But when looking at signal representation of the music, no clear difference can be seen. We propose a new approach to recognize the music type, using a multi-layer neural network as the decision making system. The presented model for classifying two types of music showed 100% success with a simple model based on a neural network.
