SOMba: Multiuser Music Creation Using Self-Organizing Maps and Motion Tracking
نویسندگان
چکیده
SOMba is a systemwhere multiple users create new rhythms and music by moving around a physical space while being tracked in real time using the infrared sensor on the Wii remote control. The physical space they move around in is mapped to a 2D Self-Organizing map. This SOM is created using the Marsyas audio processing framework from a collection of aligned 1-bar Samba rhythms of a variety of Brazilian musical instruments. A user is mapped to a unique point in the SOM, and this point contains a single rhythm. As the user moves around the 2D space, different rhythms are played. Multiple users can move around a space, and each would generate a different rhythm.

Covariance Analysis of a vector tracking GPS receiver based on MMSE multiuser Detection
In high dynamic conditions, using vector tracking loops instead of scalar tracking loops in GPS receivers is proved as an efficient method to compensate the performance. The Minimum Mean Squared Error detector as a multiuser detector is applied in the vector tracking loop for more reliability and efficiency. The Kalman filter does the two tasks of tracking and extracting the navigation data aft...
متن کاملA Self Organizing Map for Relation Extraction from Wikipedia using Structured Data Representations
In this work, we will report on the use of selforganizing maps (SOMs) in a clustering and relation extraction task. Specifically, we use the approach of self-organizing maps for structured data (SOMSDs) (i) for clustering music related articles from the free online encyclopedia Wikipedia and (ii) for extracting relations between the created clusters. We hereby rely on the bag-of-words similarit...

متن کاملDIPLOMARBEIT Islands of Music
Islands of Music are a graphical user interface to music collections based on a metaphor of geographic maps. Islands represent musical genres. Mountains and hills on these islands represent sub-genres. The islands are situated in such a way that similar genres are close together and might even be connected by a land passage while perceptually very different genres are separated by deep sea. The...
متن کاملBrowsing Music and sound using gestures in a Self-Organized 3D Space
As digital music and sound collections increase in size there has been a lot of work in developing novel interfaces for browsing them. Many of these interfaces rely on automatic content analysis techniques to create representations that reflect similarities between the music pieces or sounds in the collection. Representations in 3D have the potential to convey more information but can be diffic...
