• Abstract: This study is a theoretical approach for exploring the applicability of a 2D cellular automaton based on melodic and harmonic intervals in random arrays of musical notes. The aim of this study was to explore alternatives uses for a cellular automaton in the musical context for better understanding the musical creativity. We used the complex systems and humanities approaches as a framework for capturing the essence of creating music based on rules of music theory. Findings suggested that such rules matter for generating large-scale patterns of organized notes. Therefore, our formulation provides a novel approach for understanding and replicating aspects of the musical creativity.

  Music composition is a complex task that requires abilities to understand and generate information with long dependency and harmony constraints. Current LLMs easily fail in this task, generating ill-written music even when equipped with modern techniques like In-Context-Learning and Chain-of-Thoughts. We propose ComposerX, an agent-based symbolic music generation framework.

  We explore the intriguing similarities between the structure of a discrete neural network, such as a spiking network, and the composition of a piano piece. We propose a novel approach that leverages musical grammar to regulate activations in a spiking neural network. We show that the map of concepts in our model is structured by the musical circle of fifths, highlighting the potential for leveraging music theory principles in deep learning algorithms.

• Music Harmony Generation, through Deep Learning and Using a Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm [0.0]
  This paper introduces a genetic multi-objective evolutionary optimization algorithm for the generation of polyphonic music. One of the goals is the rules and regulations of music, which, along with the other two goals, including the scores of music experts and ordinary listeners, fits the cycle of evolution to get the most optimal response. The results show that the proposed method is able to generate difficult and pleasant pieces with desired styles and lengths, along with harmonic sounds that follow the grammar while attracting the listener, at the same time.

  This paper takes the framework proposed in a previous research that did not consider rhythm to make a series of design decisions, then, rhythm support is added to evaluate the performance of two RNN memory cells in the creation of monophonic music. The model considers the handling of music transposition and the framework evaluates the quality of the generated pieces using automatic quantitative metrics based on geometry which have rhythm support added as well.

  We present a model for composing melodies given a user specified symbolic scenario combined with a previous music context.

Results show that the music generated by our model tends to have salient repetition structures, rich motives, and stable rhythm patterns.
