Abstract
A method and a system are provided for searching content (e.g., text, metadata and/or a fingerprint, etc.). In one example, the system receives content and a query for matching the content. The content includes computer readable data. The system generates a feature vector for the content. Generating the feature vector comprises generating a signal from the content, generating a spectrogram from the signal, and generating the feature vector from the spectrogram. The system searches for at least one feature vector that matches the feature vector for the content.
