Predictive Models for Music

Samy Bengio, Jean-François Paiement

Modeling long-term dependencies in time series has proved very difficult to achieve with traditional machine learning methods. This problem occurs when considering music data. In this paper, we introduce generative models for melodies. We decompose melodic ...

Probabilistic models for music

Jean-François Paiement

This thesis proposes to analyse symbolic musical data under a statistical viewpoint, using state-of-the-art machine learning techniques. Our main argument is to show that it is possible to design generative models that are able to predict and to generate m ...

A Distance Model for Rhythms

Samy Bengio, Jean-François Paiement

Modeling long-term dependencies in time series has proved very difficult to achieve with traditional machine learning methods. This problem occurs when considering music data. In this paper, we introduce a model for rhythms based on the distributions of di ...

Probabilistic Models for Melodic Prediction

Samy Bengio, Jean-François Paiement

Chord progressions are the building blocks from which tonal music is constructed. The choice of a particular representation for chords has a strong impact on statistical modeling of the dependence between chord symbols and the actual sequences of notes in ...

A Generative Model for Rhythms

Samy Bengio, Jean-François Paiement

Modeling music involves capturing long-term dependencies in time series, which has proved very difficult to achieve with traditional statistical methods. The same problem occurs when only considering rhythms. In this paper, we introduce a generative model ...

Chord Representations for Probabilistic Models

Samy Bengio, Jean-François Paiement

Chord progressions are the building blocks from which tonal music is constructed. Inferring chord progressions is thus an essential step towards modeling long term dependencies in music. In this paper, three different representations for chords are designe ...
