Goal: To retrieve the most similar incipits from the
RISM A/II collection, given one of the incipits as a query.
Dataset: 558 MusicXML files of the incipits from the RISM collection. 11 incipits of this collection are chosen as queries. These MusicXML files were converted to MIDI files.
The scores reported here are averaged over the 11 queries.
