Harmonization and Tuning: Integrating Africa

Tuning of a Knowledge-Driven Harmonization Model for Tonal Music

The paper presents and discusses direct and indirect tuning of a knowledge-driven harmonization model for tonal music. Automatic harmonization is a data analysis problem: an algorithm processes a music notation document and generates specific meta-data (harmonic functions). The proposed model could be seen as an Expert System with manually selected weights, based largely on the music theory. It...

Comparison of some tuning methods for integrating processes

There are several tuning methods available for PI controllers. The Magnitude Optimum Multiple Integration (MOMI) tuning method results in a very good closed-loop response for a large class of process models. The method calculates the PI controller parameters from the process model or from the open-loop or the closed-loop time response of the process. Recently, the MOMI tuning method has been ex...

Fractional Order PI Tuning for Integrating Plants with Time Delay ⋆

In the last decade, non-integer order controllers have received great attention, due to their capacity of achieving robustness of the controlled loops with respect to gain and parameter variations of the plant. However, despite the general interest, technical literature offers few widely accepted and easy tuning techniques for these new controllers. To overcome the lack of simple tuning rules, ...
