    摘要: The present systems, devices, and methods generally relate to generating families of symbol sequences with controllable degree of correlation within and between them using quantum computers, and particularly to the exploitation of this capability to generate families of symbol sequences representing musical events such as, but not limited to, musical notes, musical chords, musical percussion strikes, musical time intervals, musical note intervals, and musical key changes that comprise a musical composition. Quantum random walks on graphs representing allowed transitions between musical events are also employed in some implementations.

    摘要: Systems, devices, and methods for encoding digital representations of musical compositions are described. Various components of a musical composition that are defined in modern music theory, such as notes and bars, are encoded as respective hierarchically-dependent data objects in a data file. The hierarchically-dependent data objects encode the musical composition in a tree-like data structure with modular nodes and adjustable relationships between nodes. Note start times and beat start times are encoded independently of one another and characterized by a timing relationship that captures the expressiveness imbued when notes and beats are not precisely synchronized. Musical variations that preserve the timing relationship between the notes and beats of the original composition are also generated and encoded.

    摘要: Computer-based systems, methods, and computer program products for generating musical compositions that convey intended mood sequences are described. The intended mood sequences may align with at least one scene from a movie and purposefully contribute to the mood conveyed to the audience by such at least one scene. Techniques for segmenting a movie into scenes, assigning mood labels to scenes, assigning musical characteristics to scenes based on corresponding mood labels, generating chord progressions, aligning abutting chord progressions, selecting chord inversions and root octaves, and heterogeneously reducing the volume of a musical composition at time intervals that correspond to movie dialog or other important accompanying audio features are all described.

    摘要: Musical catalog amplification services that leverage or deploy a computer-based musical composition system are described. The computer-based musical composition system employs algorithms and, optionally, artificial intelligence to generate new music based on analyses of existing music. The new music may be wholly distinctive from, or may include musical variations of, the existing music. Rights in the new music generated by the computer-based musical composition system are granted to the rights holder(s) of the existing music. In this way, the musical catalog(s) of the rights holder(s) is/are amplified to include additional music assets. The computer-based musical composition system may be tuned so that the new music sounds more like, or less like, the existing music of the rights holder(s). Revenues generated from the new music are shared between the musical catalog amplification service provider and the rights holder(s).

    摘要: Computer-based systems, devices, and methods for generating musical note sequences are described. One or more musical composition(s) stored in digital media include one or more data object(s) that encode notes and/or note sequences. At least one note sequence is processed to form a time-ordered sequence of parallel notes, which is analyzed to determine a k-back probability transition matrix for the at least one note sequence. An attribute, such as a style, of the at least one note sequence is thus encoded and used to generate new note sequences that embody a similar attribute or style. In some implementations, the at least one note sequence may include a concatenated set of note sequences representative of a particular library of musical compositions.

    摘要: Systems, devices, and methods for segmenting musical compositions are described. Discrete, musically-coherent segments (such as intro, verse, chorus, bridge, solo, and the like) of a musical composition are identified. Distance measures are used to evaluate whether each bar of a musical composition is more like the bars that directly precede it or more like the bars that directly succeed it, and each respective series of musically similar bars is assigned to the same respective segment. Large changes in the distance measure(s) between adjacent bars may be used to identify boundaries between abutting musical segments.
    Computer systems and computer program products for implementing segmentation are also described. The results of segmentation may advantageously be applied in computer-based composition of music and musical variations, as well as in other applications involving labelling, characterizing, or otherwise processing music.

    摘要: Systems, devices, and methods for encoding the harmonic structure of a musical composition in a digital data structure are described. Tonal and rhythmic commonalities are identified across the musical bars that make up a musical composition. Individual bars of the musical composition are each analyzed to characterize their respective harmonic fingerprints in various forms, and the respective harmonic fingerprints are compared to sort the musical bars into harmonic equivalence categories. Isomorphic mappings between hierarchical data structures that encode the musical composition based on musicality and harmony, respectively, are also described.
    The systems, devices, and methods for encoding the harmonic structure of a musical composition in a digital data structure have broad applicability in computer-based composition and variation of music.
