Research in Psychology have proposed frameworks that map emotion concepts with sentiment concepts. In this paper we study this mapping from a computational modelling perspective with a view to establish the role of an emotion-rich corpus for lexicon-...

Music recommenders: user evaluation without real users? (2015)
Conference Proceeding
CRAW, S., HORSBURGH, B. and MASSIE, S. 2015. Music recommenders: user evaluation without real users? In Yang, Q. and Woolridge, M. (eds.) Proceedings of the 24th International joint conference on artificial intelligence (IJCAI-15), 25-31 July 2015, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Palo Alto: AAAI Press [online], pages 1749-1755. Available from: https://www.ijcai.org/Proceedings/15/Papers/249.pdf

Good music recommenders should not only suggest quality recommendations, but should also allow users to discover new/niche music. User studies capture explicit feedback on recommendation quality and novelty, but can be expensive, and may have difficu... Read More about Music recommenders: user evaluation without real users?.

Case-Base Maintenance (CBM) has two important goals. On the one hand, it aims to reduce the size of the case-base. On the other hand, it has to improve the accuracy of the CBR system. CBM can be represented as a multi-objective optimization problem t... Read More about A multi-objective evolutionary algorithm fitness function for case-base maintenance..

In Proceedings of the 26th Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence conference on artificial intelligence (AAAI-12), co-located with the 2012 Symposium on educational advances in artificial intelligence (EAAI-12), 22-26 July 2012, Toronto, Canada. Palo Alto: AAAI Press [online], pages 52-58. Available from: https://www.aaai.org/ocs/index.php/AAAI/AAAI12/paper/view/5041

Techniques for music recommendation are increasingly relying on hybrid representations to retrieve new and exciting music. A key component of these representations is musical content, with texture being the most widely used feature. Current technique... Read More about Music-inspired texture representation..

Finding the hidden gems: recommending untagged music. (2011)
Conference Proceeding
HORSBURGH, B., CRAW, S., MASSIE, S. and BOSWELL, R. 2011. Finding the hidden gems: recommending untagged music. In Proceedings of the 22nd International joint conference on artificial intelligence (IJCAI-11), 16-22 July 2011, Barcelona, Spain. Palo Alto: AAAI Press [online], pages 2256-2261. Available from: https://doi.org/10.5591/978-1-57735-516-8/IJCAI11-376

We have developed a novel hybrid representation for Music Information Retrieval. Our representation is built by incorporating audio content into the tag space in a tag-track matrix, and then learning hybrid concepts using latent semantic analysis. We...
