The algorithms also remove other details, like accompanying instruments and the voice’s timbre and tone. “When you hum a melody into Search, our machine learning models transform the audio into a number-based sequence representing the song’s melody,” Krishna Kumar, senior product manager for Google Search, explained in a blog post.Īccording to Google, the AI models are trained to identify songs based on a variety of sources, including humans singing, whistling or humming, as well as studio recordings. The “hum to search” feature also is available through Google Assistant. The feature is currently available in English on iOS, and in more than 20 languages on Android. Users can then select the best match and explore information on the song and artist, view any accompanying music videos or listen to the song on a music app, find the lyrics, read analysis or even check out other recordings of the song if they’re available. Then they start humming or singing the tune for 10-15 seconds.Īfter you’re finished humming or singing, Google’s AI algorithms try to identify potential song matches and display the most likely options based on the tune. To use the feature, users of the Google app (or Google Search widget) on a mobile device can tap the mic icon and say “What’s this song?” or click the “Search a song” button. The company today announced “hum to search,” which lets users hum, whistle or sing a melody to the Google app, which then tries to track down the song you had in mind.
