Abstract

With the ubiquitous network connectivity and the proliferation of mobile devices, people are increasingly consuming digital contents from social media driven music sharing platforms (e.g., YouTube, Soundcloud). In this paper, we study a novel problem of connotation-Aware music retrieval that focuses on the connotation which expresses the implicit feeling or emotion beyond the explicit content in artworks. Our goal is to automatically retrieve relevant music on social media based on the connotation of visual inputs (e.g., images, photos) provided by the users. The problem is challenging as it requires the accurate identification of the implicit connotation from both images and music pieces, and the precise matching of the identified connotation across different data modalities. We develop a connotation-Aware music retrieval (CaMR) framework to address the above challenges. Evaluation results from a real-world social media dataset demonstrate that the CaMR framework can retrieve music that is highly relevant to the connotation of the input image.
