About
=====
This library gathers a collection of music signal processing algorithms written
by several people. The documentation of each algorithms contains a brief
description and references to the corresponding papers.

Publications
------------
Substantial informations about several of the algorithms and their evaluation
are gathered in:
- Paul Brossier, `Automatic annotation of musical audio for interactive
systems <https://aubio.org/phd>`_, PhD thesis, Centre for Digital music,
Queen Mary University of London, London, UK, 2006.
Additional results obtained with this software were discussed in the following
papers:
- P. M. Brossier and J. P. Bello and M. D. Plumbley, `Real-time temporal
segmentation of note objects in music signals
<https://aubio.org/articles/brossier04fastnotes.pdf>`_ in *Proceedings of
the International Computer Music Conference*, 2004, Miami, Florida, ICMA
- P. M. Brossier and J. P. Bello and M. D. Plumbley, `Fast labelling of note
objects in music signals
<https://aubio.org/articles/brossier04fastnotes.pdf>`, in *Proceedings of
the International Symposium on Music Information Retrieval*, 2004,
