Systems and Methods for Sound Recognition

A method for recognizing one or more sounds, comprising:

• receiving user input from the computing device, the user input providing a search query comprising the one or more sounds;
• executing instructions stored in memory, wherein execution of the instructions by a processor:
• discriminates the one or more sounds by classifying and routing the one or more sounds to one of three sound recognition applications for processing based on sound type, the three sound recognition applications comprising a first sound recognition application for singing or humming sounds, a second sound recognition application for recorded music, and a third sound recognition application for speech,
• extracts music features from the one or more sounds,
• analyzing and searching the music features using one of three databases for searching based on sound type, the three databases comprising a first database for singing or humming sounds, a second database for recorded music, and a third database for speech, and
• obtains information regarding the music features based on the analysis, searching and extraction;
• and
• in response to the search query, transmitting for display information regarding the music features of the one or more sounds to the display of the computing device.

A computer readable storage medium having embodied thereon a program, the program being executable by a processor to perform a method for recognizing one or more sounds, the method comprising:

• receiving user input from the computing device, the user input providing a search query comprising the one or more sounds;
• discriminating the one or more sounds;
• extracting music features from the one or more sounds;
• analyzing the music features using one or more databases;
• obtaining information regarding the music features based on the analysis;
• and
• in response to the search query, transmitting for display information regarding the music features of the one or more sounds to the computing device.

A system for recognizing one or more sounds, comprising:

• a computing device having a display;
• one or more databases coupled to the computing device;
• a server having a music processor, the server being coupled to the computing device and the one or more databases, the processor configured to execute instructions stored in memory to:
• receive user input from the computing device, the user input providing a search query comprising the one or more sounds,
• discriminate the one or more sounds,
• extract music features from the one or more sounds,
• analyze the music features using the one or more databases, and
• obtain information regarding the music features based on the analysis;
• and
• in response to the search query, transmit for display information regarding the music features of the one or more sounds to the display of the computing device.
