The segmentation of music into intro-chorus-verse-outro, and similar segments, is a difficult topic. A method for performing automatic segmentation based on features related to rhythm, timbre, and harmony is presented, and compared, between the features and between the features and manual segmentation of a database of 48 songs. Standard information retrieval performance measures are used in the...

Recent developments are presented in the evolution of Harmony Space , an interface that exploits cognitive theories of harmony. Harmony Space is an interface that exploits both Artificial Intelligence and Human Computer Interaction methodologies to help beginners learn about and make use of aspects of tonal harmony rapidly. Use is made of LonguetHiggins' and Balzano's cognitive theories of tona...

The Harmony Search (HS) method is an emerging meta-heuristic optimization algorithm. In this paper, we propose two modified HS methods to deal with the unimodal and multi-modal optimization problems. The first modified HS method is based on the fusion of the HS and Differential Evolution (DE) technique, namely, HS-DE. The DE is employed here to optimize the members of the HS memory. The second ...

Iztmo is a conceptual project of an electronic percussion instrument that works under a network environment to establish communication among multiple users. A new language is then created, based on rhythm, and enriched by each person’s cultural background with the main purpose of being in harmony. Iztmo emits up to five sounds, divided in different ways of interaction: the user can strike it, r...

Harmony is a fundamental attribute of music. Close connections exist between music and mathematics since both pursue harmony and unity. In music, the consonance of notes played simultaneously partly determines our perception of harmony; associates with aesthetic responses; and influences the emotion expression. The consonance could be considered as a window to understand and analyze harmony. He...

Automatic synthesis of realistic co-speech gestures is an increasingly important yet challenging task in artificial embodied agent creation. Previous systems mainly focus on generating end-to-end manner, which leads to difficulties mining the clear rhythm and semantics due complex subtle harmony between speech gestures. We present a novel gesture method that achieves convincing results both sem...
