Music Genre Classification and Recommendation by Using Machine Learning Techniques

Music genre prediction is one of the topics that digital music processing is interested in. In this study, acoustic features of music have been extracted by using digital signal processing techniques and then music genre classification and music recommendations have been made by using machine learning methods. In addition, convolutional neural networks, which are deep learning methods, were used for genre classification and music recommendation and performance comparison of the obtained results has been. In the study, GTZAN database has been used and the highest success was obtained with the SVM algorithm.
