Event Description
The Institute for AI-Driven Discovery and Innovation hosts Dr. Mary
Simoni for a talk on her music and its intersection with AI, as part
of the Music and AI Seminars series.
The event will be held on Thursday, December 10, 2020, at 3:00 PM.
Abstract: Mary Simoni, Dean of Humanities, Arts & Social Sciences at
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute will discuss her research in the use
of computer algorithms and technology in the composition and
performance of music. The talk will feature compositions inspired by
Augmented Transition Networks (ATNs), employ motion tracking to
control synthesis parameters, and a work in progress that employs
machine learning using training data that juxtaposes classical music
with COVID-19. During this talk, participants will be introduced to
several technologies that support music information retrieval, machine
learning, and algorithmic composition such as jSymbolic, Weka, and
Common Music.
