Music feature extraction library from the DIDONE project
Project description
musif
Python library for Music Feature Extraction and Analysis, developed by the Didone Project.
Documentation
Tho read the documentation, please see the website at: https://musif.didone.eu Includes definitions for musif's functions and classes, definitions for all type sof features that musif extracts, as well as example code for using musif.
You will find also two tutorials:
- A basic Tutorial, to jus tstart using musif and extracting some features and even running some ML experiments with them.
- An Advanced Tutorial, to extract features of different corpora and create your own hooks and features.
Installation
To install the latest version of musif, just run
pip install musif
which will download musif and all its necessary dependencies.
music21 and jsymbollic features
Currently, musif is able to process and integrate basic music21 features.
For jsymbollic features, musif currently does not support the integration of these features, but a tutorial will be provided to manually merge them into musif's dataframe.
jsymbollic installation
Java JRE >= 8 must be installed in your OS. Download Java Development Kit: https://www.oracle.com/es/java/technologies/downloads/
Important: right now music21 features are NOT guaranteed to be compatible with musif's cache system. Native musif's features work with cache system just fine.
Testing and features extraction
Apart from the documentation of musif, where Tutorials and example code can be found, please feel free to clone and check this repository, where musif is used to extract features from different corpuses https://github.com/DIDONEproject/music_symbolic_features
