Abstract(in English) This paper describes a WWW-based melody retrieval system which takes a sung melody as a query and retrieves the song name from a music database.In previous work, pitch information was mainly used as a clue while span information was not used effectively, and it was difficult to improve the matching accuracy by using only pitch information.We therefore propose the following two methods for effective matching.The first method can obtain the maximum quantity of information from pitch and span, and the second one reduces the answer candidates effectively.With these methods, we achieved higher matching accuracy than previous methods.
