Abstract

Creating emotionally sensitive machines will significantly enhance the interaction between humans and machines. In this chapter we focus on enabling this ability for music. Music is extremely powerful to induce emotions. If machines can somehow apprehend emotions in music, it gives them a relevant competence to communicate with humans. In this chapter we review the theories of music and emotions. We detail different representations of musical emotions from the literature, together with related musical features. Then, we focus on techniques to detect the emotion in music from audio content. As a proof of concept, we detail a machine learning method to build such a system. We also review the current state of the art results, provide evaluations and give some insights into the possible applications and future trends of these techniques.
