How long does it take to train a neural network to recognize a genre of music?

Question

Neural networks

There is a task: Write an application that defines the genre of music.
In more detail, we upload the audio file to the server, the server processes it, and issues its verdict.
There is already a neural network ready for these tasks.
The question is, how long will it take (in terms of programmer costs) to train her so that she can give a more or less adequate answer?

Answer 1

First, what network architecture do you have? Multilayer Perceptron, Kohonen, etc. ? What type of training, with or without a teacher? What problem are you solving, classification or clustering of data? What is the project written in? What is the feature vector of recognizable objects? There are a lot of factors here. When I wrote my project on the classification of eye pathologies based on coherence tomography data, it took me about two weeks to teach it to work correctly with the data and check the whole thing (classification task).

Answer 2

A minuscule programmer's time.
Compared to how much reference data you need to cram into it (which you need to take somewhere else).
