This allows for searching for relevant music pieces by issuing descriptive textual queries. In this paper, we examine the effects of incorporating audio-based similarity into the text-based ranking process-either by directly modifying the retrieval process or by performing post-hoc audio-based re-ranking of the search results. The aim of this combination is to improve ranking quality by including relevant tracks that are left out by text-based retrieval approaches. Our evaluations show overall improvements but also expose limitations of these unsupervised approaches to combining sources. Evaluations are carried out on two collections , one large real-world collection containing about 35,000 tracks and on the CAL500 set.
