| Abstract | Conducting experiments on large scale musical datasets often requires the definition of a dataset as a first step in the analysis process. This is a classification task, but metadata providing the relevant information is not always available or reliable and manual annotation can be prohibitively expensive. In this study we aim to automate the annotation process using a machine learning approach for classification. We evaluate the effectiveness and the trade-off between accuracy and required number of annotated samples. We present an interactive incremental method based on active learning with uncertainty sampling. The music is represented by features extracted from audio and textual metadata and we evaluate logistic regression, support vector machines and Bayesian classification. Labelled training examples can be iteratively produced with a web-based interface, selecting the samples with lowest classification confidence in each iteration. We apply our method to address the problem of instrumentation identification, a particular case of dataset definition, which is a critical first step in a variety of experiments and potentially also plays a significant role in the curation of digital audio collections. We have used the CHARM dataset to evaluate the effectiveness of our method and focused on a particular case of instrumentation recognition, namely on the detection of piano solo pieces. We found that uncertainty sampling led to quick improvement of the classification, which converged after ca. 100 samples to values above 98%. In our test the textual metadata yield better results than our audio features and results depend on the learning methods. The results show that effective training of a classifier is possible with our method which greatly reduces the effort of labelling where a residual error rate is acceptable. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
