What is it about?
MDMS stands for music data matching system. This application queries the database to retrieve the top-matched variants of an input music item. The differences between the input and the retrieved versions are also shown in terms of various audio features.

Why is it important?
Meta data is not enough for exact identification, and available meta-data can be incomplete, inconsistent and incorrect. So, we rely on file-content-based analysis for identification of music for retrieval of its closest versions. Even though there are other popular music matching applications that also use a similar approach, they recognise music files that are already present in the database and can not recognise the significantly changed music pieces. This is where MDMS comes into place. It not only automatically recognises the most similar version(s) of an input music piece, but also shows the differences between them in terms of various audio features.
Perspectives
An automated solution for music recognition; First step towards automated license recognition. Reliance on file-content-based analysis (audio fingerprinting, feature extraction) for unique identification. Our matching algorithm finds database-stored music version(s) that are most similar to the input music piece. It distinguishes between the different versions of a song in terms of the considered music features.
