  • Abstract
    This paper describes an approach to automatically detect music and song sequences in movies. Particularly, the system is designed to identify songs in movies, as well as their genre, playback singer and on-screen performing actors. We define the so-called song grammar that a musical sequence typically follows by means of a finite state machine. The observation of 20 most popular movies shows that 98% of the songs in these movies are based on grammar defined in this paper, hence, it can be applied for song sequences detection.
