ABSTRACT
Pitch histograms are frequently used for a wide range of applications in music information
retrieval (MIR) which mainly focus on western music. However there are significant differences
between pitch spaces of traditional Turkish art music (TTAM) and western music which prevent to
apply current methods. In this sense comparison of pitch histograms for TTAM corresponds to the
research domain in pattern recognition: finding an appropriate similarity measure in relation with
the metric axioms and characteristics of the data. Therefore we have evaluated various similarity
measures frequently used in histogram comparison such as L1-norm, L2-norm, histogram
intersection, correlation coefficient measures and earth mover’s distance (EMD) for TTAM.
Consequently we have discussed one of the problems of the domain, about measures regarding
overlap or/and non-overlap between ordinal type histograms and presented an improved version
of EMD for TTAM.
