This paper presents popular music estimation based on a topic model using time information and audio features. The proposed method calculates latent topic distribution using Latent Dirichlet Allocation to obtain more accurate music features. In this approach, we also use release date information of each music as time information for concerning the relationship between music trends and each age. Then, by using the obtained latent topic distribution features, the estimation of the popular music becomes feasible based on a Support Vector Machine classifier. Experimental results show the effectiveness of our method.
