Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture for media monitoring are disclosed. In particular, the example methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture generate signatures. Initially, a first plurality of filtered values are identified by performing a wavelet transform on a first frame of media samples. A first energy value is determined based on a first portion of the first plurality of filtered values, and a second energy value is determined based on a second portion of the first plurality of filtered values. A first descriptor of the first frame of media samples is determined based on a comparison of the first energy value and the second energy value. A first signature is generated based on the first descriptor.

An apparatus as defined in claim 8, wherein the instructions stored in the memory enable the processor system to identify media information based on the first signature. 14. An apparatus as defined in claim 13, wherein the media information is associated with at least one of audio information or video information. 15. A tangible machine accessible storage medium, excluding a signal, comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a machine to at least: identify a first plurality of filtered values by performing a wavelet transform on a first frame of media samples;determine a first energy value based on a first portion of the first plurality of filtered values;determine a second energy value based on a second portion of the first plurality of filtered values;determine a first descriptor of the first frame of media samples based on a comparison of the first energy value and the second energy value;generate a first signature based on the first descriptor;determine a second descriptor of a second frame of media samples; andgenerate a second signature based on the second descriptor. 16. A machine accessible medium as defined in claim 15, wherein the first plurality of filtered values is associated with a high-frequency sub-band of the first frame of media samples. 17. A machine accessible medium as defined in claim 15, wherein the first descriptor is associated with only the first frame of media samples. 18. A machine accessible medium as defined in claim 15, having instructions stored thereon that, when executed, cause the machine to: identify the second frame of media samples by extracting a common plurality of media samples from the first flame of media samples and appending a first plurality of media samples to the common plurality of media samples. 19. A machine accessible medium as defined in claim 18, having instructions stored thereon that, when executed, cause the machine to: identify a second plurality of filtered values by performing the wavelet transform on the second frame of media samples;determine a third energy value based on a first portion of the second plurality of filtered values;determine a fourth energy value based on a second portion of the second plurality of filtered values; anddetermine the second descriptor based on a comparison of the third energy value and the fourth energy value.
