Performance Rules for Computer-Controlled Contemporary Keyboard Music

Performance rules for computer controlled performance of contemporary keyboard music

Rules for automated performance of ensemble music

Recently developed parts of a computer program are presented that contain a rule system which automatically converts music scores to musical performance, and which, in a sense, can be regarded as a model of a musically gifted player. The development of the rule system has followed the analysis-by-synthesis strategy; various rules have been formulated according to the suggestions of a profession...

Articulation Rules For Automatic Music Performance

Rules for legato, staccato, and repeated notes articulation in automatic piano performance are presented. These rules were obtained applying the analysis-by-measurement method to performances of Mozart piano sonatas on MIDIfied acoustic grand pianos. The effects produced by the rules vary with tempo indications, with expressive intentions and with musical context. The articulation rules are par...

Human Computer Music Performance

Human Computer Music Performance (HCMP) is the study of music performance by live human performers and real-time computer-based performers. One goal of HCMP is to create a highly autonomous artificial performer that can fill the role of a human, especially in a popular music setting. This will require advances in automated music listening and understanding, new representations for music, techni...

Fuzzy Rules in Computer-Assisted Music Interpretation

In this paper we describe fuzzy rules used in the developed prototype of a “fuzzy music interpretation system” [4]. The core of this system consists of two essential units, the rule base and the inference machine. The rule base contains general IF–THEN interpretation rules, formulated by an experienced pianist. The inference machine contains both conventional and advanced fuzzy information proc...
