Abstract
Due to an increasing amount of music being made available in digital form
in the Internet, an automatic organization of music is sought. The paper
presents an approach to graphical representation of mood of songs based on
Self-Organizing Maps. Parameters describing mood of music are proposed and
calculated and then analyzed employing correlation with mood dimensions
based on the Multidimensional Scaling. A map is created in which music
excerpts with similar mood are organized next to each other on the
two-dimensional display.
