Predicting Emotions Perceived from Sounds
Faranak Abri, Luis Felipe Gutiérrez, Akbar Siami Namin +2
Sonification is the science of communication of data and events to users through sounds. Auditory icons, earcons, and speech are the common auditory display schemes utilized in son…
Fake Reviews Detection through Analysis of Linguistic Features
Faranak Abri, Luis Felipe Gutierrez, Akbar Siami Namin +2
Online reviews play an integral part for success or failure of businesses. Prior to purchasing services or goods, customers first review the online comments submitted by previous c…
String-based methods for tonal harmony: A corpus study of Haydn's string quartets
David R. W. Sears
This chapter considers how string-based methods might be adapted to address music-analytic questions related to the discovery of musical organization, with particular attention dev…
Beneath (or beyond) the surface: Discovering voice-leading patterns with skip-grams
David R. W. Sears, Gerhard Widmer
Recurrent voice-leading patterns like the Mi-Re-Do compound cadence (MRDCC) rarely appear on the musical surface in complex polyphonic textures, so finding these patterns using com…
Fake Reviews Detection through Ensemble Learning
Luis Gutierrez-Espinoza, Faranak Abri, Akbar Siami Namin +2
Customers represent their satisfactions of consuming products by sharing their experiences through the utilization of online reviews. Several machine learning-based approaches can…
Psychological constraints on string-based methods for pattern discovery in polyphonic corpora
David R. W. Sears, Gerhard Widmer
Researchers often divide symbolic music corpora into contiguous sequences of n events (called n-grams) for the purposes of pattern discovery, key finding, classification, and predi…
Evaluating language models of tonal harmony
David R. W. Sears, Filip Korzeniowski, Gerhard Widmer
This study borrows and extends probabilistic language models from natural language processing to discover the syntactic properties of tonal harmony. Language models come in many sh…
A Large-Scale Study of Language Models for Chord Prediction
Filip Korzeniowski, David R. W. Sears, Gerhard Widmer
We conduct a large-scale study of language models for chord prediction. Specifically, we compare N-gram models to various flavours of recurrent neural networks on a comprehensive d…
What were you expecting? Using Expectancy Features to Predict Expressive Performances of Classical Piano Music
Carlos Cancino-Chacón, Maarten Grachten, David R. W. Sears +1
In this paper we present preliminary work examining the relationship between the formation of expectations and the realization of musical performances, paying particular attention…
Modeling Harmony with Skip-Grams
David R. W. Sears, Andreas Arzt, Harald Frostel +2
String-based (or viewpoint) models of tonal harmony often struggle with data sparsity in pattern discovery and prediction tasks, particularly when modeling composite events like tr…
Automatic estimation of harmonic tension by distributed representation of chords
Ali Nikrang, David R. W. Sears, Gerhard Widmer
The buildup and release of a sense of tension is one of the most essential aspects of the process of listening to music. A veridical computational model of perceived musical tensio…
