Though there exist a number of highly accurate methods, both mono-pitch estimation and multi-pitch estimation (particularly with unspecified polyphonic timbre) prove computationally and conceptually challenging. A number of current techniques, while incredibly effective, are not targeted towards eliciting the underlying mathematical structures that underpin the complex musical patterns exhibited by acoustic musical signals. Tackling the approach from both theoretical and experimental perspectives, we present a novel framework, a basis for further work in the area, and results that (while not state of the art) demonstrate relative efficacy. The framework presented in this paper opens up a completely new way to tackle PE problems and may have uses both in traditional analytical approaches as well as in the emerging machine learning (ML) methods that currently dominate the literature.","PeriodicalId":50138,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematics and Music","volume":"1 1","pages":"100 - 132"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90140050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Metrical relations are defined as binary relations on the set of timepoints, and the subsequent use of the monoid they generate and of the corresponding functor to allows us to define meter networks, i.e. networks of timepoints (or sets of timepoints) related by metrical relations. We compare this to existing theories of metrical conflict, such as those of Harald Krebs and Richard Cohn, and illustrate that these tools help to more effectively combine displacement and grouping dissonance and reflect analytical claims concerning nineteenth-century examples of complex hemiola and twentieth-century polymeter. We show that meter networks can be transformed into each other through meter network morphisms, which allows us to describe both meter displacements and meter inclusions. These networks are applied to various examples from the nineteenth and twentieth century.","PeriodicalId":50138,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematics and Music","volume":"25 1","pages":"29 - 50"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75569943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Proceeding from the premise that an 18th century classical composer's musical language becomes more complex over time, we suggest that this method, insofar as it quantifies and graphically represents complexity, could be a useful tool for exploring musical style, compositional maturity, and also issues of authorship or chronology. As a preliminary study of this concept, we chose a sample of six minuet movements (and one scherzo) from Haydn's string quartets from throughout his career, and analysed the melodic content of the first violin part. This intentional limitation to a small sample of works in a single genre whose authorship and chronology are beyond question allows us to focus on fundamental issues of musical content, and how that might develop and change during the period in which the works were composed.","PeriodicalId":50138,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematics and Music","volume":"65 1","pages":"18 - 28"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-11-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76095946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is formalized from a categorical point of view by the use of functors where is a category, often a group or a monoid. At the same time, binary relations have also been used in mathematical music theory to describe relations between musical elements, one of the most compelling examples being Douthett's and Steinbach's parsimonious relations on pitch-class sets. Such relations are often used in a geometrical setting, for example through the use of so-called parsimonious graphs to describe how musical elements relate to each other. This article examines a generalization of transformational approaches based on functors , called relational presheaves, which focuses on the algebraic properties of binary relations defined over sets of musical elements. While binary relations include the particular case of functions, they provide additional flexibility as they also describe partial functions and allow the definition of multiple images for a given musical element. Our motivation to expand the toolbox of transformational music theory is illustrated in this paper by practical examples of monoids and categories generated by parsimonious and common-tone cross-type relations. At the same time, we describe the interplay between the algebraic properties of such objects and the geometrical properties of graph-based approaches.","PeriodicalId":50138,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematics and Music","volume":"34 3 1","pages":"51 - 79"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77695475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ombak arises in a paired tuning system in which corresponding unisons of two instruments (or instrumental groups) are tuned to slightly different frequencies, one higher and one lower, to produce beats. Pitch classes are not necessarily tuned to octaves in an exact 2:1 frequency ratio; instead, octaves are often stretched or compressed. This paper discusses the relationship between the ombak rate and octave tempering, and demonstrates that the beating rate, combined with the octave tuning strategy chosen, can be modeled using a tempering parameter that determines the amount of stretching or compression. This model is then used to analyze tuning data of nine complete gamelan.","PeriodicalId":50138,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematics and Music","volume":"21 1","pages":"1 - 17"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73664694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Indeed I found that it could be a promising new approach to measuring organization of musical material.

The present study extends the canonical n-gram approach by using skip-grams, which include sub-sequences in an n-gram list if their constituent members occur within a certain number of skips. We compiled four data sets of Western tonal music consisting of symbolic encodings of the notated score and a recorded performance, created a model pipeline for defining, counting, filtering, and ranking skip-grams, and ranked the position of the MRDCC in every possible model configuration. We found that the MRDCC receives a higher rank in the list when the pipeline employs 5 skips, filters the list by excluding n-gram types that do not reflect a genuine harmonic change between adjacent members, and ranks the remaining types using a statistical association measure.","PeriodicalId":50138,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematics and Music","volume":"15 1","pages":"209 - 234"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87031626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
