Music Structure Analysis

Feature Introduction

Music structure analysis capability can parse the structure of user-input pop music, locate intro, verse, chorus, interlude, bridge, outro and other sections. Input a music file, output the parsed structure results

API Description

Request Method: POST (HTTP)

Request URL: https://api.mediax.tencent.com/job

Request Header: Content-Type: application/json

Request Flow: The API includes 'Create Task' and 'Query Task'. After creating a task, users can actively query the task to know the result, or input a callback address when creating the task, and the task will automatically callback to that address after completion

Other Requirements: Common audio formats are recommended, such as mp3, wav; and the input file should be pop music

Get Task Information

There are two ways to get information: active query and passive callback.

  • Active query has two types of query interfaces based on id category: one is to query based on user-defined id, since the platform cannot guarantee the uniqueness of this id, it returns a Job array (see 1); the other is to query by the id in the response after creating the task (see 2)
  • Passive callback requires filling in the callback field when creating the task, the platform will send the Job structure to the address specified by callback after the task enters the completion state (COMPLETED/ERROR) (see 3), the platform recommends using passive callback to get task results.

In the music structure analysis capability, if the queried task is successful (state=3), the task's Output will carry a smartContentResult structure, in which the musicStructureAnalysis field (MusicStructureAnalysisResult) stores the structure analysis results.

MusicStructureAnalysisResult Field Description

Parameter Type Description
chrous Array of StartEndPair Chorus section list
verse Array of StartEndPair Verse section list
intro Array of StartEndPair Intro section list
inter Array of StartEndPair Interlude section list
outro Array of StartEndPair Outro section list
bridge Array of StartEndPair Bridge section list

StartEndPair

Parameter Type Description
start string Start time
end string End time

3. Passive Callback

The entire Job structure of the task that enters the completion state (COMPLETED/ERROR) will be sent to the address corresponding to the callback field specified by the user when creating the task. See the active query example (under getJobResponse) for the Job structure
