Over the past few months, there have been various requests (mine
included.) for information on music-related applications of neural
nets. Since I have not seen any mention of it yet, I felt
that I should bring to light a newly-found source which might contain
some valuable articles:
Computer Music Journal, vol. 13, no. 3.
"Neural Nets and Connectionism 1"
This journal is published by the MIT Press, and subscription in-
formation is available at
The MIT Press
55 Hayward Street
Cambridge, MA 02142.
A brief run-down of the rates ... "$25 for students and retirees,
$28 for individuals, and $63 for institutions. Subscribers outside
the United States add $9 for surface postage, $17 for airmail.
Single copies of current issues: $8." Issues appear quarterly.
This particular issue, the fall issue, contains articles covering
-- "Preface to the Special Issue on Parallel Distributed Processing
and Neural Networks"
-- "Machine Tongues XII: Neural Networks"
-- "A Neural Net Model for Pitch Perception"
-- "Connectionist Models for Tonal Analysis"
-- "The Quantization of Musical Time: A Connectionist Approach"
-- "Using Connectionist Models to Explore Complex Musical Patterns"
-- "Fingering for String Instruments with the Optimum Path Paradigm"
-- others including more special interest and updates on new products.
This is the first issue of a two-issue Neural Network series being
run by this journal. The next issue of Computer Music Journal is
expected in the Winter (Dec./Jan.), and will expand on some of the
subjects presented in the first featured neural network issue. If
you are interested in neural nets in music, I suggest checking this
publication out.
