Abstract

Genre and emotion have been applied to content-based music retrieval and organization; however, the intrinsic correlation between them has not been explored. In this paper we present a statistical association analysis to examine such intrinsic correlation and propose a two-layer scheme that exploits the correlation for emotion classification. Significant improvement of classification accuracy over the traditional single-layer scheme is obtained.
