Using general-purpose compression algorithms for music analysis

General-purpose compression algorithms encode files as dictionaries of substrings with the positions of these strings' occurrences. We hypothesized that such algorithms could be used for pattern discovery in music. We compared LZ77, LZ78, Burrows-Wheeler and COSIATEC on classifying folk song me...
