METHOD OF OBTAINING A REPRESENTATION OF A TEXT

摘要

A method of obtaining a data file (20;22) including a representation of a text, e.g. the lyrics of a song, includes obtaining multiple candidate files (13;25) containing character strings, on the basis of a search query submitted to a server system (5) arranged to permit a search of the contents of at least one server (1-3) to be performed, forming a sub-set (19;35) of the multiple candidate files, and forming the representation of the text from at least one of the candidate files in the sub-set (19;35) only. The method further includes comparing data based on at least some of the character strings in the candidate files, and forming the sub-set (19;35) from candidate files for which the data based on at least some of the character strings satisfies a measure of similarity.
