Analysis and Synthesis of Palestrina-Style Counterpoint Using Markov Chains

چکیده
This paper presents a novel approach to computergenerated Palestrina-style counterpoint using probabilistic Markov Chains. It is shown how Markov Chains adequately capture the rules of species counterpoint and how they can be used to synthesize species counterpoint given a cantus firmus. It is also shown how such rules can be inferred from given counterpoint examples.

Software architecture is considered one of the most important indices of software engineering today. Software Architecture is a technical description of a system indicating its component structures and their relationships, and is the principles and rules governing designing. The success of the software depends on whether the system can satisfy the quality attributes. One of the most critical as...

متن کاملEvaluation of First and Second Markov Chains Sensitivity and Specificity as Statistical Approach for Prediction of Sequences of Genes in Virus Double Strand DNA Genomes
Growing amount of information on biological sequences has made application of statistical approaches necessary for modeling and estimation of their functions. In this paper, sensitivity and specificity of the first and second Markov chains for prediction of genes was evaluated using the complete double stranded DNA virus. There were two approaches for prediction of each Markov Model parameter,...
متن کاملMarkov modeling and reliability analysis of urea synthesis system of a fertilizer plant
This paper deals with the Markov modeling and reliability analysis of urea synthesis system of a fertilizer plant. This system was modeled using Markov birth–death process with the assumption that the failure and repair rates of each subsystem follow exponential distribution. The first-order Chapman–Kolmogorov differential equations are developed with the use of mnemonic rule and these equation...
متن کاملEmpirical Bayes Estimation in Nonstationary Markov chains
Estimation procedures for nonstationary Markov chains appear to be relatively sparse. This work introduces empirical Bayes estimators for the transition probability matrix of a finite nonstationary Markov chain. The data are assumed to be of a panel study type in which each data set consists of a sequence of observations on N>=2 independent and identically dis...
