Projects and Activities

Clubmixer

A cross platform, client-server based audio framework

The Clubmixer Framework is a client-server based audio framework focused on rapid prototyping and experimenting. The open-source framework especially contributes to the development of content-based querying and retrieval, collaborative filtering, music recommendation, playlist generation and music summarization.

SCAPE

SCALable Preservation Environments

The SCAPE project (Integrated Project (FP7)) will enhance the state of the art of digital preservation in three ways: by developing infrastructure and tools for scalable preservation actions; by providing a framework for automated, quality-assured preservation workflows and by integrating these components with a policy-based preservation planning and watch system.

CHORUS+

CHORUS+ Network of Audio-Visual Media Search

CHORUS+ objective is to coordinate national and international projects and initiatives in the Search-engine domain and to extend this Coordination in non-European countries.
