Music information retrieval is currently an active research area that addresses the extraction of musically important information from audio signals, and the applications of such information. The extracted information can be used for search and retrieval of music in recommendation systems, or to aid musicological studies or even in music learning. Sophisticated signal processing techniques are applied to convert low-level acoustic signal properties to musical attributes which are further embedded in a rule-based or statistical classification framework to link with high-level descriptions such as melody, genre, mood and artist type. Vocal music comprises a large and interesting category of music where the lead instrument is the singing voice. The singing voice is more versatile than many musical instruments and therefore poses interesting challenges to information retrieval systems. In this paper, we provide a brief overview of research in vocal music processing followed by a description of related work at IIT Bombay leading to the development of an interface for melody detection of singing voice in polyphony.
