چکیده
This paper describes HARMONY: a system that integrates the phases that take part in the creation of a musical composition. The kernel deals with automatic melody generation through fractal algorithms and harmonisation of generated melodies based on traditional theory. The system has been developed in Haskell and works on top of the musical description system Haskore.

Brainstem correlates of behavioral and compositional preferences of musical harmony.
Certain chords are preferred by listeners behaviorally and also occur with higher regularity in musical composition. Event-related potentials index the perceived consonance (i.e., pleasantness) of musical pitch relationships providing a cortical neural correlate for such behavioral preferences. Here, we show correlates of these harmonic preferences exist at subcortical stages of audition. Brain...
متن کاملReal-Time Performance via User Interfaces to Musical Structures
This informal and subjective presentation will introduce and compare several software systems written by the myself and others for computer music composition and performance based on higher-level abstractions of musical data structures. I will then evaluate a few of the issues in real-time interaction with structural descriptions of musical data. The premise is that very interesting live-perfor...
متن کاملModified Harmony Search Algorithm Based Unit Commitment with Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles
Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) technology shows great interest in the recent scientificliteratures. Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) is a interconnection of energy storage of PHEVs and grid. Byimplementation of V2G dependencies of the power system on small expensive conventional units canbe reduced, resulting in reduced operational cost. This paper represents an intelligent unitcommitment (UC) wi...
متن کاملThe Use of Constraint Systems for Musical Composition
I discuss three issues relevant to the use of constraints in musical AI applications: four-part harmony; serial composition; and music representation. I describe two small pieces of work in the former two, and suggest that the last constitutes an important challenge question for those interested in designing constraint systems for use in an AI/Music context.
متن کاملIIR System Identification Using Improved Harmony Search Algorithm with Chaos
Due to the fact that the error surface of adaptive infinite impulse response (IIR) systems is generally nonlinear and multimodal, the conventional derivative based techniques fail when used in adaptive identification of such systems. In this case, global optimization techniques are required in order to avoid the local minima. Harmony search (HS), a musical inspired metaheuristic, is a recently ...
