This representation allows the encoding of chord transitions at a level higher that individual notes that is transposition-invariant and idiom-independent (analogous to pitch inter...

We use the term Computational Ethnomusicology (CE) to describe the use of computer tools to assist the analysis and understanding of musics from around the world. Although existing MIR techniques ...

The methods used are based on the theory of African music, the theory of symbolic dynamics, and combinatorial theory. Heart period tachograms from 192 24-h electrocardiograms of 96 healthy subjects were transf...
