T-Music: A melody composer based on frequent pattern mining

Cheng Zhi Long, Raymond Chi-Wing Wong, Raymond Ka Wai Sze · 2013

There are a bulk of studies on proposing algorithms for composing the melody of a song automatically with algorithms, which is known as algorithmic composition. To the best of our knowledge, none of them took the lyric into consideration for melody composition. However, according to some recent studies, within a song, there usually exists a certain extent of correlation between its melody and its lyric. In this demonstration, we propose to utilize this type of correlation information for melody composition. Based on this idea, we design a new melody composition algorithm and develop a melody composer called T-Music which employs this composition algorithm.
