Abstract

A method and system for identifying the beginning and ending of songs via a machine learning analysis. A machine learning model analyzes streaming audio (such as a radio broadcast) in overlapping, 3-second samples. Each sample is labeled into groups such as “song,” “talk,” “commercial” and “transition.” Based on the location of the transition samples, an exact second a given song begins and ends in the audio stream is derivable. The model further identifies when two songs shift between one another.
