Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE HUMAN CHORD DAILY NEWS." There is a rush and a splendour about the whole narrative that sweeps the reader from his feet. . . . The Human Chord is a book to haunt and to inspire." Mr. HILAIRE BELLOC in the WESTMINSTER GAZETTE. " No short notice of work of this description can do anymore than announce it ; it is not susceptible to analysis, or, for that matter, to description ; but it is work which could not have been done in any other country than England, nor perhaps in any other medium than English, and certainly not successfully done by any other author. It is unique, and should be a matter of national pride." DAILY TELEGRAPH." The author has had, one may say, a stupendous idea, and he has carried it out with all the zeal and all the talent which is in him. . . . It is a wonderful tale." GUARDIAN. "No writer of the present day has so keen a sense of the supernatural as Mr. Blackwood. It amounts to genius. He creates his atmosphere, and, having found it, he keeps it. He never makes a mistake or strikes a jarring note. In his present novel he reaches a height not previously attained ; he touches on deeper problems, and is perhaps more arresting than he has ever been." GLOBE. " The Human Chord is a singularly arresting book, in a sense defying description and analysis. To read it is to live in the mind of an author steeped in the mystic and believing in the unseen things of which he writes."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Introduction to Audio Content Analysis Enables readers to understand the algorithmic analysis of musical audio signals with AI-driven approaches An Introduction to Audio Content Analysis serves as a comprehensive guide on audio content analysis explaining how signal processing and machine learning approaches can be utilized for the extraction of musical content from audio. It gives readers the algorithmic understanding to teach a computer to interpret music signals and thus allows for the design of tools for interacting with music. The work ties together topics from audio signal processing and machine learning, showing how to use audio content analysis to pick up musical characteristics automatically. A multitude of audio content analysis tasks related to the extraction of tonal, temporal, timbral, and intensity-related characteristics of the music signal are presented. Each task is introduced from both a musical and a technical perspective, detailing the algorithmic approach as well as providing practical guidance on implementation details and evaluation. To aid in reader comprehension, each task description begins with a short introduction to the most important musical and perceptual characteristics of the covered topic, followed by a detailed algorithmic model and its evaluation, and concluded with questions and exercises. For the interested reader, updated supplemental materials are provided via an accompanying website. Written by a well-known expert in the music industry, sample topics covered in Introduction to Audio Content Analysis include: Digital audio signals and their representation, common time-frequency transforms, audio features Pitch and fundamental frequency detection, key and chord Representation of dynamics in music and intensity-related features Beat histograms, onset and tempo detection, beat histograms, and detection of structure in music, and sequence alignment Audio fingerprinting, musical genre, mood, and instrument classification An invaluable guide for newcomers to audio signal processing and industry experts alike, An Introduction to Audio Content Analysis covers a wide range of introductory topics pertaining to music information retrieval and machine listening, allowing students and researchers to quickly gain core holistic knowledge in audio analysis and dig deeper into specific aspects of the field with the help of a large amount of references.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music informatics is an interdisciplinary research area that encompasses data driven approaches to the analysis, generation, and retrieval of music. In the era of big data, two goals weigh heavily on many research agendas in this area: (a) the identification of better features and (b) the acquisition of better training data. To this end, researchers have started to incorporate findings and methods from music cognition, a related but historically distinct research area that is concerned with elucidating the underlying mental processes involved in music-related behavior.

Book Synopsis Pattern in Music by : Darrell Conklin
Download or read book Pattern in Music written by Darrell Conklin and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents analyses of pattern in music from different computational and mathematical perspectives. A central purpose of music analysis is to represent, discover, and evaluate repeated structures within single pieces or within larger corpora of related pieces. In the chapters of this book, music corpora are structured as monophonic melodies, polyphony, or chord sequences. Patterns are represented either extensionally as locations of pattern occurrences in the music, or intensionally as sequences of pitch or chord features, rhythmic profiles, geometric point sets, and logical expressions. The chapters cover both deductive analysis, where music is queried for occurrences of a known pattern, and inductive analysis, where patterns are found using pattern discovery algorithms. Results are evaluated using a variety of methods including visualization, contrasting corpus analysis, and reference to known and expected patterns. Pattern in Music will be a key resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of music, musicology, music analyses, mathematical music theory, computational musicology, and music informatics. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Mathematics and Music.
Book Synopsis The Thin Bone Vault by : Fredric M Menger
Download or read book The Thin Bone Vault written by Fredric M Menger and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2009-02-11 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delves into one of the greatest riddles perplexing modern science: “Why are humans so smart?” In a format understandable even by the non-expert, the author investigates the origins of human intelligence, starting with classical Darwinian concepts. Thus, the strengths and beauty of natural selection are presented with many examples taken from natural history. Common criticisms of Darwin, from scientists and non-scientists alike, are confronted and shown to be either inconclusive or outright false. The author then launches into a discussion of human intelligence, the most important feature of human evolution, and how it cannot be fully explained by mutational selection. Modern humans are smarter than what is demanded by our evolutionary experience as hunter-gatherers. The difficulty lies in the inability of natural selection to answer the following question: how can a complex set of genes, controlling expensive traits with little immediate benefit, come into permanent existence within a short time period in every member of a small population (which was dispersed and geographically isolated over a huge planet) which had a low reproductive output and a low mutation rate? The book concludes with a speculative epigenetic theory of intelligence that does not require DNA mutations as a source of evolution. Although the book is comprehensible by anyone with a college education, this last section in particular should intrigue both layman and expert alike.

Book Synopsis Advances in Music Information Retrieval by : Zbigniew W. Ras
Download or read book Advances in Music Information Retrieval written by Zbigniew W. Ras and published by Springer. This book was released on 2010-03-10 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sound waves propagate through various media, and allow communication or entertainment for us, humans. Music we hear or create can be perceived in such aspects as rhythm, melody, harmony, timbre, or mood. All these elements of music can be of interest for users of music information retrieval systems. Since vast music repositories are available for everyone in everyday use (both in private collections, and in the Internet), it is desirable and becomes necessary to browse music collections by contents. Therefore, music information retrieval can be potentially of interest for every user of computers and the Internet. There is a lot of research performed in music information retrieval domain, and the outcomes, as well as trends in this research, are certainly worth popularizing. This idea motivated us to prepare the book on Advances in Music Information Retrieval. It is divided into four sections: MIR Methods and Platforms, Harmony, Music Similarity, and Content Based Identification and Retrieval. Glossary of basic terms is given at the end of the book, to familiarize readers with vocabulary referring to music information retrieval.
