Computational Models of Expressive Music Performance: the State of the Art
نویسندگان
چکیده
This contribution gives an overview of the state of the art in the field of computational modeling of expressive music performance. The notion of predictive computational model is briefly discussed, and a number of quantitative models of various aspects of expressive performance are briefly reviewed. Four selected computational models are reviewed in some detail. Their basic principles and assumptions are explained and, wherever possible, empirical evaluations of the models on real performance data are reported. In addition to these models, which focus on general, common principles of performance, currently ongoing research on the formal characterisation of differences in individual performance style are briefly presented.

The Effectiveness of Expressive Group Art Therapy on Decreasing Anxiety of Orphaned Children
Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of expressive arts therapy on decreasing anxiety of orphaned girls living in family-like centers of Mashhad, Iran. Methods: One week prior to final examinations, participants were randomly assigned to either an expressive art-making group or a control group. The State-trait anxiety inventory was administered before and af...
متن کاملThe ACCompanion v0.1: An Expressive Accompaniment System
In this paper we present a preliminary version of the ACCompanion, an expressive accompaniment system for MIDI input. The system uses a probabilistic monophonic score follower to track the position of the soloist in the score, and a linear Gaussian model to compute tempo updates. The expressiveness of the system is powered by the Basis-Mixer, a state-of-the-art computational model of expressive...
متن کاملSense in Expressive Music Performance: Data Acquisition, Computational Studies, and Models
This chapter gives an introduction to basic directions of current research in expressive music performance. A special focus is given on the various methods to acquire performance data either during a performance (e.g., through computer-monitored instruments) or from audio recordings. We then survey computational approaches to formalise and model the various aspects in expressive music performan...

Computer Music Journal, 27:3, pp. 66–72, Fall 2003 2003 Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Motion plays an important role in music, a fact evidenced not only by the wealth of terminology used by musicians and music theorists that refer to music in ‘‘motional’’ terms. Consider, for example, how we speak of music as ‘‘slowing down,’’ ‘‘speeding up,’’ ‘‘moving from F-sharp to G,’’ etc. A consi...
متن کاملModeling Embellishment, Timing and Energy Expressive Transformations in Jazz Guitar
Professional musicians manipulate sound properties such as timing, energy, pitch and timbre in order to add expression to their performances. However, there is little quantitative information about how and in which context this manipulation occurs. This is particularly true in Jazz music where learning to play expressively is mostly acquired intuitively. In this paper we describe a machine le...
