Abstract
We present an audio classification and retrieval technique that exploits the non-stationary behavior of music signals and extracts features that characterize their spectral change over time. Audio classification provides a solution to incorrect and inefficient manual labelling of audio files on computers by allowing users to extract music files based on content similarity rather than labels. In our technique, classification is performed using time-frequency analysis and sounds are classified into 6 music groups consisting of rock, classical, folk, jazz and pop. For each 5 second music segment, the features that are extracted include entropy, centroid, centroid ratio, bandwidth, silence ratio, energy ratio, and location of minimum and maximum energy. Using a database of 143 signals, a set of 10 time-frequency features are extracted and an accuracy of classification of around 93% using regular linear discriminant analysis or 92.3% using the leave-one-out method is achieved.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
