Examples of QbH Systems
SoundHound and Midomi are the only commercially available query by humming services available online at Midomi.com or on the mobile app called SoundHound. Both are powered by the same backend and are capable of recognizing humming and singing as well as recorded tracks. For the singing and humming search, the searchable database is based on Midomi.com's user contributions. Midomi has collected about one million tracks based on user contributions in multiple languages, making it the largest database of its kind by a large margin. The top four languages are: English, Japanese, Chinese and Spanish.
Musipedia is an example of a QbH system that uses a variety of input methods such as humming, tapping the keyboard, keyboard search (a virtual piano keyboard), draw notes, and a contour search, using Parsons Code to encode the music pieces.
Tunebot is a music search engine that uses queries from humming, lyrics, and melody. People can contribute to the database and expand the variety of searchable songs. Tunebot also serves as the back-end for a game called Karaoke Callout, in which players' performances are compared by the engine with songs in the database.

Famous quotes containing the words examples of, examples and/or systems:
“It is hardly to be believed how spiritual reflections when mixed with a little physics can hold people’s attention and give them a livelier idea of God than do the often ill-applied examples of his wrath.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
“In the examples that I here bring in of what I have [read], heard, done or said, I have refrained from daring to alter even the smallest and most indifferent circumstances. My conscience falsifies not an iota; for my knowledge I cannot answer.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“The only people who treasure systems are those whom the whole truth evades, who want to catch it by the tail. A system is just like truth’s tail, but the truth is like a lizard. It will leave the tail in your hand and escape; it knows that it will soon grow another tail.”
—Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)
