Data-Driven Music Theory: Curating and Investigating Large Corpora of Digitally Encoded Music Analyses

This dissertation on data-driven music theory is centered around curatorial practices concerning the creation, publication, and evaluation of large, expert-annotated symbolic datasets. With its primary interest in the harmony of European tonal music from i ...

Motif Cut Sparsifiers

Mikhail Kapralov, Mikhail Makarov, Jakab Tardos

A motif is a frequently occurring subgraph of a given directed or undirected graph G (Milo et al.). Motifs capture higher order organizational structure of G beyond edge relationships, and, therefore, have found wide applications such as in graph clusterin ...

Positioning Left-hand Movement in Violin Performance: A System and User Study of Fingering Pattern Generation

Yi-Hsin Jen

Organizing fingerings, i.e., choosing which fingers to press on which positions and strings, is a crucial step for playing the violin. As the violin fingering comprises several components, the mapping of a musical phrase to the corresponding fingering arra ...

The Tonal Diffusion Model

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Fabian Claude Moss, Robert Lieck

Pitch-class distributions are of central relevance in music information retrieval, computational musicology and various other fields, such as music perception and cognition. However, despite their structure being closely related to the cognitively and musi ...

Learning, Generating and Adapting Wave Gestures for Expressive Human-Robot Interaction

Sylvain Calinon

This study proposes a novel imitation learning approach for the stochastic generation of human-like rhythmic wave gestures and their modulation for effective non-verbal communication through a probabilistic formulation using joint angle data from human dem ...

Modelling the Syntax of North Indian Melodies with a Generalized Graph Grammar

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Christoph Finkensiep

Hierarchical models of music allow explanation of highly complex musical structure based on the general principle of recursive elaboration and a small set of orthogonal operations. Recent approaches to melodic elaboration have converged to a representation ...

Algorithmic Composition of Melodies with Deep Recurrent Neural Networks

Wulfram Gerstner, Johanni Michael Brea, Alexander Kevin Seeholzer, Florian François Colombo, Samuel Pavio Muscinelli

A big challenge in algorithmic composition is to devise a model that is both easily trainable and able to reproduce the long-range temporal dependencies typical of music. Here we investigate how artificial neural networks can be trained on a large corpus o ...

Crystal structures of eight mono-methyl alkanes (C-26-C-32) via single-crystal and powder diffraction and DFT-D optimization

Philip Pattison

The crystal structures of eight mono-methyl alkanes have been determined from single-crystal or high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation. Mono-methyl alkanes can be found on the cuticles of insects and are believed to act as rec ...

Measuring Symmetry, Asymmetry and Randomness in Neural Network Connectivity

Michele Giugliano, Eleni Vasilaki

Cognitive functions are stored in the connectome, the wiring diagram of the brain, which exhibits non-random features, so-called motifs. In this work, we focus on bidirectional, symmetric motifs, i.e. two neurons that project to each other via connections ...
