In contrast to other books dealing solely with music signal processing, it addresses additional cultural and listener-centric aspects and thus provides a more holistic view. Consequently, the text includes methods operating on features extracted directly from the audio signal, as well as methods operating on features extracted from contextual information, either the cultural context of music as represented on the web or the user and usage context of music. Following the prevalent document-centered paradigm of information retrieval, the book addresses models of music similarity that extract computational features to describe an entity that represents music on any level (e.g., song, album, or artist), and methods to calculate the similarity between them. While this perspective and the representations discussed cannot describe all musical dimensions, they enable us to effectively find music of similar qualities by providing abstract summarizations of musical artifacts from different modalities. The text at hand provides a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the topics of music search, retrieval, and recommendation from an academic perspective. It will not only allow those new to the field to quickly access MIR from an information retrieval point of view but also raise awareness for the developments of the music domain within the greater IR community. In this regard, Part I deals with content-based MIR, in particular the extraction of features from the music signal and similarity calculation for content-based retrieval. Part II subsequently addresses MIR methods that make use of the digitally accessible cultural context of music. Part III addresses methods of collaborative filtering and user-aware and multi-modal retrieval, while Part IV explores current and future applications of music retrieval and recommendation.>.The Information Retrieval Series,1871-7500 ;36Information storage and retrievalApplication softwareSignal processingImage processingSpeech processing systemsBig dataInformation Storage and Retrievalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18032Computer Appl. in Arts and Humanitieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I23036Signal, Image and Speech Processinghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24051Big Data/Analyticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522070Information storage and retrieval.Application software.Signal processing.Image processing.Speech processing systems.Big data.Information Storage and Retrieval.Computer Appl. in Arts and Humanities.Signal, Image and Speech Processing.Big Data/Analytics.025.04Knees Peterauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut929210Schedl Markusauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254982203321Music Similarity and Retrieval2088414UNINA04246nam 22006255 450 991058350220332120240312142006.09783031058516(electronic bk.)978303105850910.1007/978-3-031-05851-6(MiAaPQ)EBC7032799(Au-PeEL)EBL7032799(CKB)24169402100041(DE-He213)978-3-031-05851-6(EXLCZ)992416940210004120220706d2022 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierConfronting Mainstream Economics for Overcoming Capitalism /by Rémy Herrera1st ed. 2022.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2022.1 online resource (358 pages)Marx, Engels, and Marxisms,2524-7131Print version: Herrera, Rémy Confronting Mainstream Economics for Overcoming Capitalism Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2022 9783031058509 1.

Overcoming Capitalism to Protect Humanity and the Environment: Revitalizing Marxism for Modern Socialist Transitions.This book provides analytical arguments that demonstrate the necessity to go beyond not only mainstream economics but also, and especially, the capitalist economy itself. It provides a radical critique of mainstream economics, comparing it to an unscientific form of single thought, and applies this criticism to the specific fields of growth, development, the institutions, defense, or the environment. It targets both neoclassical economics and reformist "soft heterodox" currents, from neoinstitutionalists to neo-Keynesians-including Thomas Piketty or Amartya Sen, among others. In doing so, it rejects Keynes' theories of money, the crisis, and the state. It then offers a Marxist interpretation of the current crisis of capitalism, considering it as a systemic crisis without solutions internal to its own logic and dynamics, and emphasizes the links between this capitalist crisis and imperialist wars, and the destruction of the environment and natural resources by capital. The book concludes by arguing that we must find the necessary theoretical and practical alternatives in a Marxist perspective, advocating for socialist transitions away from the capitalist economy to protect humanity and the environment.
