Music

Computational music, algorithmic composition, and AI-assisted performance

Computational Music Research

We explore how computation can augment and transform musical creation, performance, and experience.

Research Themes

Algorithmic Composition

  • Rule-based and constraint-based composition systems
  • Markov chains, grammatical approaches, and evolutionary algorithms
  • Hybrid human–AI collaborative composition

AI and Machine Learning

  • Neural networks for melody, harmony, and structure generation
  • Style transfer and cross-domain music generation
  • Real-time generative accompaniment (see DMA)

Performance Systems

  • Interactive systems for live performance
  • Score following and real-time synchronization
  • Mixed-reality music experiences

Music Visualization

  • Sonification and audiovisual mapping
  • Real-time visual feedback for performance
  • Data-driven musical representations
