 Abstract

An Integrated Music Player App with Recommendation Engine and Music Recognition System
is an advanced digital platform designed to offer a personalized and interactive music listening
experience. This project aims to develop an application that combines the functionalities of a music
player, a recommendation system, and a music recognition module into a seamless user experience.
The core of the application is its music player, which allows users to browse, play, and manage
a library of songs. It supports various audio formats, ensuring compatibility with a wide range
of music files. The player is designed with a user-friendly interface that provides easy access to
different functionalities such as playlists, search, and playback controls.
The recommendation engine is another critical component. It utilizes machine learning
algorithms to analyze users’ listening habits, preferences, and interactions within the app. Based on
this analysis, the engine suggests songs, artists, and genres that the user is likely to enjoy. This
personalized approach aims to enhance user engagement by discovering new music that fits their
tastes.
Integrating a music recognition system adds a unique feature to the application. This system
allows users to identify songs playing in their surroundings by recording a short audio snippet.
The recognition module processes the recording, compares it against a vast database of songs, and
returns the song title, artist, and other relevant information to the user. This feature is particularly
useful for music discovery in everyday situations.
The project involves the development of both frontend and backend systems. The frontend
focuses on creating an intuitive and attractive user interface, while the backend is responsible
for handling data storage, processing user requests, and implementing the recommendation and
recognition algorithms. Ensuring the application’s scalability and performance is crucial, especially
when dealing with large music libraries and user bases.
Privacy and data security are also paramount, as the application handles personal user data
and preferences. The project includes measures to protect user information and comply with data
protection regulations.
Overall, the Integrated Music Player App with Recommendation Engine and Music Recognition
System aims to provide a comprehensive music platform that caters to individual preferences,
encourages music exploration, and simplifies the process of identifying unknown songs. It represents
a convergence of technology and music, offering a unique and engaging experience for users.

Literature Survey

2.1 PAPER : 1 - Smart Music Player Integrating Facial Emotion Recognition

and Music Mood Recommendation

AUTHOR : Shlok Gilda , Hussain Zafar , Chintan Soni , Kshitija Waghurdekar
ABSTARCT : Songs, as a medium of expression, have always been a popular choice to depict
and understand human emotions. Reliable emotion based classification systems can go a long
way in helping us parse their meaning. However, research in the field of emotion-based music
classification has not yielded optimal results. In this paper, we present an affective cross-platform
music player, EMP, which recommends music based on the real-time mood of the user. EMP
provides smart mood based music recommendation by incorporating the capabilities of emotion
context reasoning within our adaptive music recommendation system. Our music player contains
three modules: Emotion Module, Music Classification Module and Recommendation Module. The
Emotion Module takes an image of the user’s face as an input and makes use of deep learning
algorithms to identify their mood with an accuracy of 90.23%. The Music Classification Module
makes use of audio features to achieve a remarkable result of 97.69% while classifying songs into 4
different mood classes. The Recommendation Module suggests songs to the user by mapping their
emotions to the mood type of the song, taking into consideration the preferences of the user.

2.2 PAPER : 2 - Heartbeats: Music Recommendation System With Fuzzy

Inference Engine
AUTHOR : Vinothini Kainathan , Aida Mustapha , Tan Sau Tong
ABSTARCT : In developing a music recommendation system, there are several factors that
can contribute to the inefficiency in music selection. One of the problems persists during the music
listening is that common music playing application lacks the ability to acquire context of the user.
Another problem that common music recommendation system fails to address the is emotional
impact of the recommended song. To address this gap, this paper presents a music recommendation
system based on fuzzy inference engine that considers user activities and emotion as part of the
recommendation parameters. The system includes building a smart music recommendation system
that has user profiling capabilities to recommend correct songs based on the user’s preferences,
mood and time. Findings of the this paper have shown that Heartbeats’s fuzzy inference engine
has successfully achieved its aim, which is to improve users’ music listening experience by giving
suitable song recommendation based on user context situation.

2.3 PAPER : 3 - An MPD Player with Expert Knowledge-BasedSingle User

Music Recommendation
AUTHOR : Hen-Hsen Huang , Authors Info Claims
ABSTARCT : This work demonstrates a music player based on Music Player Daemon (MPD), a
protocol popular for audiophiles, with personalized music recommendation. As a standalone player,
we focus on the scenario of single user recommendation. Different from collaborative filtering
based recommendation, which relies on usage patterns from a large number of users, we propose a
novel approach that does not require other users’ information. We formulate the recommendation
as a task of knowledge base completion and exploit the expert knowledge from a music knowledge
base. The effectiveness of our approach is evaluated, and the player is released as an open-source
software for music lovers.

2.4 PAPER : 4 - Search Engine and Recommendation System for the Music

Industry built with JinaAI

AUTHOR : Ishita Gopalakrishnan , Sanjjushri Varshini R , Ponshriharini V
ABSTARCT : One of the most intriguing debates regarding a novel task is the development of
search engines and recommendation-based systems in the music industry. Studies have shown a
drastic depression in the search engine fields, due to concerning factors such as speed, accuracy and
the format of data given for querying. Often people face difficulty in searching for a song solely
based on the title, hence a solution is proposed to complete a search analysis through a single query
input and is matched with the lyrics of the songs present in the database. Hence it is essential to
incorporate cutting-edge technology tools for developing a user-friendly search engine. Jina AI is
an MLOps framework for building neural search engines that are utilized, in order for the user to
obtain accurate results. Jina AI effectively helps to maintain and enhance the quality of performance
for the search engine for the query given. An effective search engine and a recommendation system
for the music industry, built with JinaAI.

2.5 PAPER : 5 - Analysis and Design of Intelligent Music Player System

Based on Gesture Recognition

AUTHOR : Yiliang Xing , Huajun Lei
ABSTARCT : Gesture recognition based on computer vision is an important part of artificial
intelligence. Gesture recognition is an important way of human-computer interaction and is of
great significance to improve user experience. Aiming at the problem of intelligent control of
traditional music player, this paper designed and developed an intelligent music player system based
on gesture recognition, this paper discusses the method of gesture contour extraction, presents the
gesture recognition method about fourier descriptor and neural network, and gives the design of the
intelligent music player based on software engineering. Experiments show that the system has the
advantages of high recognition rate, excellent performance and good user experience

2.6 PAPER : 6 - Smoodi: Mood-based music recommendation player

AUTHOR : Seungjae Lee , Jung Hyun Kim , Sung Hyun Kim
ABSTARCT : In this paper, we present a mood-based music recommendation player: Smoodi.
The Smoodi provides smart mood recommendation by touch and drag and it has three different
views: Mood Square, Cover Flow and Mood Cloud. In the Mood Square, users can check the
mood distribution of local clips and generate playlists by touching mood cells. In the Cover Flow,
users can find music information and generate similar songs list by dragging a seed song. In the
Tag Cloud, users can make playlists by selecting mood tags. For this application, we developed
new mood model from collected mood tags and arousal-valence position values and designed a
regression function to estimate mood probabilities

2.7 PAPER : 7 - An integrated music recommendation system

AUTHOR : Xuan Zhu , Yuan-Yuan Shi
ABSTARCT : In this paper, an integrated music recommendation system is proposed, which
contains the functions of automatic music genre classification, automatic music emotion
classification, and music similarity query. A novel tempo feature, named as log-scale modulation
frequency coefficients, is presented in this paper. With AdaBoost algorithm, the proposed tempo
feature is combined with timbre features and improves the performance of music genre and emotion
classification. Comparing with the conventional methods based on timbre features, the precision of
five-genre classification is enhanced from 86.8% to 92.2% and the accuracy of four-emotion
classification is increased from 86.0% to 90.5%. Based on the results of music genre/emotion
classification, we design a similarity query scheme, which can speed up the similarity query process
without decreasing the precision. Furthermore, all the features employed in this paper are extracted
from the data of MP3 partially decoding, which significantly reduces the feature extraction time

2.8 PAPER : 8 - Music Sharing Platform Based on Sina App Engine

AUTHOR : Zhe-Yi Zhao , Chang Dong Wang , Ping-Jun Zheng
ABSTARCT : Music sharing is one of the most important components in interactive
entertainment. In recent years, mobile music market has experienced a rapid growth. Current
mainstream music sharing platforms provide users with a large number of online music, which
however suffer some limitations of functionality since they neglect the interactions in the physical
world. This paper presents the entertainment-oriented Location-Based Mobile Services (LBMSs),
which is a music sharing platform based on Sina App Engine, where a novel music
recommendation algorithm is proposed based on the geographical location. We utilize a map-based
interface for visualizing the possible points of interest and the related information. The
combination of online music sharing and offline music sharing creates a new music sharing mode.
The proposed music sharing platform is developed with cloud computing techniques, which relies
on sharing of resources and focuses on maximizing the effectiveness of the shared resources. Music
sharing on cloud is more convenient and efficient in this case. Experimental results show that this
platform can function properly and achieve satisfactory user experience

2.9 PAPER : 9 - Emotion Based Music Recommendation System Using

Wearable Physiological Sensors

AUTHOR : Deger Ayata , Yusuf Yaslan
ABSTARCT : Most of the existing music recommendation systems use collaborative or content
based recommendation engines. However, the music choice of a user is not only dependent to the
historical preferences or music contents. But also dependent to the mood of that user. This paper
proposes an emotion based music recommendation framework that learns the emotion of a user
from the signals obtained via wearable physiological sensors. In particular, the emotion of a user is
classified by a wearable computing device which is integrated with a galvanic skin response (GSR)
and photo plethysmography (PPG) physiological sensors. This emotion information is feed to any
collaborative or content based recommendation engine as a supplementary data. Thus, existing
recommendation engine performances can be increased using these data. Therefore, in this paper
emotion recognition problem is considered as arousal and valence prediction from multi-channel
physiological signals. The results of comprehensive experiments on real data confirm the accuracy
of the proposed emotion classification system that can be integrated to any recommendation engine.

2.12 PAPER : 12 - Emotion Recognition based Music Player using

Convolutional Neural Network,

AUTHOR :Dr. Aparna , Akash D Naik
ABSTARCT : This research study focuses on the classification that may be accomplished
through the detection of human facial expression using a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The
network is able to classify emotions and play music based on the user’s identified facial expression.
The suggested approach successfully and implicitly classifies the expression into happy, sad, angry,
disgusted, fear, and neutral by leveraging the Convolutional Neural Network architecture. By
playing music that is customized to the user’s current mood, the smart music player has the potential
to enhance the listening experience. The player might also be used to assist people in controlling
their emotions by playing music that, depending on how they are feeling at the time, can help them
unwind, feel joyful, or reduce tension. In order to play the appropriate songs from a remote database
depending on the user’s mood, the smart music player primarily employs the system camera to
detect the user’s facial expression. The database will play a random song from the happy playlist if
the system determines that the user is in a happy mood. This process is repeated for the other five
emotions.
