PRINCIPLES OF THE DESIGN OF D-NEURONAL NETWORKS I: NET REPRESENTATION FOR COMPUTER SIMULATION OF A MELODY COMPOSITIONAL PROCESS

Peter Fedor · International Journal of Neural Systems · 1992

We present a deterministic neural network model for the processing of temporal sequences of tones. Several types of model neural units are defined in a form suitable for the digital computer simulation of their nets. On the basis of the proposed units, we set up prediction trees which serve for recognition and prediction of pitches that emerge in single-lined diatonic melodies. The prediction tree also evaluates the surprise evoked by a processed melody in regard to the pitch sequences currently memorized in this tree.
