Methods, systems, and media for rights management of embedded sound recordings using composition clustering

Abstract

Methods, systems, and media for determining and presenting information related to embedded sound recordings are provided. In some embodiments, the method comprises: receiving a content item; extracting a sound recording from the content item; generating a melody fingerprint of the extracted sound recording; determining whether the melody fingerprint of the extracted sound recording matches one of a plurality of clusters of similar sounding sound recordings in a reference database, wherein each cluster in the plurality of clusters of similar sounding sound recordings is associated with ownership information based on a plurality of ownership information associated with each of the sound recordings in the cluster; in response to determining that the melody fingerprint of the extracted sound recording matches a cluster of similar sounding sound recordings, retrieving ownership information associated with the cluster; mapping the ownership information to the sound recording extracted from the content item; and causing an action to be performed on the content item based on the mapped ownership information.
