Description

Another question. Maybe offtopic, but still. I have two identical tracks from different sources. Physically, the tracks are different (possibly encoding compression). I get their fingerprints. They are of course different. Is it possible to get some distance between fingerprints to compare their similarities. If so, in which direction to look? Thank you.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the Python bindings and the fingerprint representation used by Chromaprint and the Acoustid Web service. The issue does not name files, entry points, or tests; the work would first need a defined comparison method and acceptance criteria for what counts as a useful similarity distance.
