We discuss a software development project named Chorale Composer that seeks to create a cohesive student environment for learning techniques in harmonic analysis and counterpoint. Through the use of sophisticated four-part algorithmic analysis, student-input music is immediately scanned for anomalous voice leading and chord construction. The algorithms employed are rigorously model-based and do...

Linguistic style conveys the social context in which communication occurs and defines particular ways of using language to engage with the audiences to which the text is accessible. In this work, we are interested in the task of stylistic transfer in natural language generation (NLG) systems, which could have applications in the dissemination of knowledge across styles, automatic summarization ...

In this paper, we present a novel method for editing stylistic human motions. We represent styles as differences between stylistic motions and introduced neutral motions, including timing differences and spatial differences. Timing differences are defined as time alignment curves, while spatial differences are found by a machine learning technique: Independent Feature Subspaces Analysis, which ...

Program authorship attribution—identifying a programmer based on stylistic characteristics of code—has practical implications for detecting software theft, digital forensics, and malware analysis. Authorship attribution is challenging in these domains where usually only binary code is available; existing source code-based approaches to attribution have left unclear whether and to what extent pr...

This article describes an intelligent computerassisted language instruction system that is designed to teach principles of syntactic style to students of English. Unlike conventional style checkers, the system performs a complete syntactic analysis of its input, and takes the student's stylistic intent into account when providing a diagnosis. Named STASEL for Stylistic Treatment At the Sentence...

We employ analytical and numerical chemical evolution models to study observed trends in abundance ratios involving carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen. Several sets of published stellar yields for both intermediate-mass and massive stars are considered, and the most appropriate sets are selected through the use of analytical models. These yields are then used in the numerical models to match observed...

A rather well-known aspect of French Stylistic Inversion is the impossibility of having a nominal object either precede or follow the inverted subject. A similar phenomenon is found in cases of French Stylistic Inversion with causative and perception verbs. The nominal subject of the infinitival complement can never appear with the inverted subject of the causative or perception verb. Both phen...
