The main topics addressed in its R&D department=20 include acoustics, audio signal processing, computer music, interaction=20 technologies, musicology. Ircam is located in the center of Paris near=20 the Centre Pompidou, at 1, Place Igor Stravinsky 75004 Paris. *Introduction to Quaero project* Quaero is a 200 MEUR collaborative research and development program=20 focusing on the areas of automatic extraction of information, analysis,=20 classification and usage of digital multimedia content for professionals=20 and consumers. The research work shall concentrate on managing virtually=20 unlimited quantities of multimedia and multilingual information,=20 including text, speech, music, image and video. Five main application areas have been identified by the partners: * multimedia internet search * enhanced access services to audiovisual content on portals * personalized video selection and distribution * professional audiovisual asset management * digitalization and enrichment of library content, audiovisual cultural heritage and scientific information. The Quaero consortium was created to meet new multimedia content=20 analysis requirements for consumers and professionals, faced with the=20 explosion of accessible digital information and the proliferation of=20 access means (PC, TV, handheld devices).* *More information can be found=20 at www.quaero.org/ <http://www.quaero.org/>.** *Role of Ircam in Quaero Project* In the Quaero project, Ircam is in charge of the coordination of=20 audio/music indexing research and of development of music-audio indexing=20 technology: music content-description (tempo, rhythm, key, chord,=20 singing-voice, and instrumentation description), automatic indexing=20 (music genre/style, mood), music similarity, music audio summary, chorus=20 detection.
