Hello,<br>
my name is Krzysiek. Together with my friend - Piotrek - we plan to create a plugin to amarok.<br>

Many people who use Amarok have big
collections of music. We want to create a program that would allow the
creation of intelligent playlist. Playlists would not be created "in
the traditional" way, but will be created automatically. User have to
define only what kind of music he wants to listen - fast or slow and
sad or happy. The program will automatically select the appropriate
music from the collection of songs that match your criteria. This would
be something like "senseme," which action can be seen on film:

The program will not benefit from any additional information, such as
tags. It will operate only on the basis of the description of the
acoustic wave track. All we will need is music in some format such as
ogg or mp3.<br>
<br>
The project could be further developed. The next step could be the
situation that user indicates some work in collection of music and
system would choose similar works for him.<br>
<br>
We know that many people will say that is not possible. I suggest them
to familiarize with the following work:
<a href="http://www.ifs.tuwien.ac.at/ifs/research/pub_pdf/pam_thesis01.pdf">http://www.ifs.tuwien.ac.at/ifs/research/pub_pdf/pam_thesis01.pdf</a>. This
project will be implemented in two courses in our study - Neural
networks and automatic acquisition of knowledge. It will also be a
basis for further work on my thesis (master thesis).
</p>
<p>
We think, this would be a great idea for Google Summer of Code, which we can make!<br>
Please say what think you about this idea. We hope for feedback ;)<br>
This project will make Amarok and KDE more intelligent!<br>
<br>
We apologize for our english.<br>
<br>
Best wishes<br>
