Title
Multi-label classification of music by emotion
Abstract
This work studies the task of automatic emotion detection in music. Music may evoke more than one different emotion at the same time. Single-label classification and regression cannot model this multiplicity. Therefore, this work focuses on multi-label classification approaches, where a piece of music may simultaneously belong to more than one class. Seven algorithms are experimentally compared for this task. Furthermore, the predictive power of several audio features is evaluated using a new multi-label feature selection method. Experiments are conducted on a set of 593 songs with six clusters of emotions based on the Tellegen-Watson-Clark model of affect. Results show that multi-label modeling is successful and provide interesting insights into the predictive quality of the algorithms and features.
