Most of existing audio fingerprinting systems have limitations to be used for high-specific audio retrieval at scale. In this work, we generate a low-dimensional representation from a short unit segment of audio, and couple this fingerprint with a fast maximum inner-product search. To this end, we present a contrastive learning framework that derives from the segment-level search objective. Each update in training uses a batch consisting of a set of pseudo labels, randomly selected original samples, and their augmented replicas. These replicas can simulate the degrading effects on original audio signals by applying small time offsets and various types of distortions, such as background noise and room/microphone impulse responses. In the segment-level search task, where the conventional audio fingerprinting systems used to fail, our system using 10x smaller storage has shown promising results. Our code and dataset are available at https://mimbres.github.io/neural-audio-fp/.

An acoustic fingerprint is a condensed and powerful digital signature of an audio signal which is used for audio sample identification. A fingerprint is the pattern of a voice or audio sample. A large number of algorithms have been developed for generating such acoustic fingerprints. These algorithms facilitate systems that perform song searching, song identification, and song duplication detection. In this study, a comprehensive and powerful survey of already developed algorithms is conducted. Four major music fingerprinting algorithms are evaluated for identifying and analyzing the potential hurdles that can affect their results. Since the background and environmental noise reduces the efficiency of music fingerprinting algorithms, behavioral analysis of fingerprinting algorithms is performed using audio samples of different languages and under different environmental conditions. The results of music fingerprint classification are more successful when deep learning techniques for classification are used. The testing of the acoustic feature modeling and music fingerprinting algorithms is performed using the standard dataset of iKala, MusicBrainz and MIR-1K.

In this article analysis of the effectiveness of the acoustic algorithm of the fingerprint in the conditions of various acoustic disturbances is presented and described. The described algorithm is stable and should identify music even in the presence of acoustic disturbances. This was checked in a series of tests in four different conditions: silence, street noise, noise from the railway station, noise from inside the moving car during rain. In the case of silence, 10 measurements were taken lasting 7 seconds each. For each of the remaining conditions, 21 attempts were made to identify the work. The capture time for each of the 21 trials was 7 seconds. Every 7 attempts were changed noise volume. Subsequently, they were disruptions at a volume lower than the volume of the intercepted song, another 7 with an altitude similar to the intercepted track, and the last with a much higher volume. The effectiveness of the algorithm was calculated for two different times, and general - for the average of two results. Base of "fingerprints" consisted of 20 previously analyzed music pieces belonging to different musical genres.

This paper presents a novel and efficient audio signal recognition algorithm with limited computational complexity. As the audio recognition system will be used in real world environment where background noises are high, conventional speech recognition techniques are not directly applicable, since they have a poor performance in these environments. So here, we introduce a new audio recognition algorithm which is optimized for mechanical sounds such as car horn, telephone ring etc. This is a hybrid time-frequency approach which makes use of acoustic fingerprint for the recognition of audio signal patterns. The limited computational complexity is achieved through efficient usage of both time domain and frequency domain in two different processing phases, detection and recognition respectively. And the transition between these two phases is carried out through a finite state machine(FSM)model. Simulation results shows that the algorithm effectively recognizes audio signals within a noisy environment.

This article presents results of the recognition process of acoustic fingerprints from a noise source using spectral characteristics of the signal. Principal Components Analysis (PCA) is applied to reduce the dimensionality of extracted features and then a classifier is implemented using the method of the k-nearest neighbors (KNN) to identify the pattern of the audio signal. This classifier is compared with an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) implementation. It is necessary to implement a filtering system to the acquired signals for 60Hz noise reduction generated by imperfections in the acquisition system. The methods described in this paper were used for vessel recognition.
