Musical Mereology

Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I develop an axiomatic system of mereology that accounts for the ways in which musical works can be said to have parts. I distinguish two fundamental modes of composition that musical works exhibit: successive composition, whereby sound events are concatenated in time, and simultaneous composition, whereby sound events occur at the same time ...

The Effect of Pitch Height, Timbre and Octave Error on Absolute Pitch Accuracy. Educational Implications

Review of Artistic Education, 2019
The accuracy of absolute pitch has often fallen into mythical perspectives, as this rare ability tends to fascinate people through its spectacular results. Many people tend to think that a musician with absolute pitch is always capable of identifying the

Comments on "Facilitation and Coherence Between the Dynamic and Retrospective Perception of Segmentation in Computer-Generated Music," by Freya Bailes and Roger T. Dean

Empirical Musicology Review, 2007
Although the study by Bailes & Dean (2007) addresses an underresearched area of auditory and musical perception, it raises questions concerning stimuli, methodology, and the study's relation to previous research, that are outlined in this commentary.

Softening the Border: A Capacities Approach to the Perception–Cognition Distinction

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Approaches to the perception–cognition distinction tend toward two extremes. Many embrace a hard border, treating perception and cognition as mutually exclusive, non‐overlapping categories. By contrast, eliminativism denies that any principled, theoretically useful distinction exists between perception and cognition.

TimbreTron: A WaveNet(CycleGAN(CQT(Audio))) Pipeline for Musical Timbre Transfer

, 2019
In this work, we address the problem of musical timbre transfer, where the goal is to manipulate the timbre of a sound sample from one instrument to match another instrument while preserving other musical content, such as pitch, rhythm, and loudness.

Long‐term stability of sinus complication management

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Maxillary sinus augmentation shows a low incidence of complications and high clinical success due to favorable biological conditions and typically transient issues. Most complications are intraoperative, such as Schneiderian membrane perforation or hemorrhage, and are often resolved immediately.

Automatic Timbre Transformation Using Enhanced Diffusion Model

IEEE Access
We present a novel timbre transfer model that uses an enhanced diffusion architecture to convert music from various instruments into Erhu timbre. The Erhu, a traditional Chinese instrument, is difficult to simulate due to its rich vibrato and smooth note

Modeling Timbre Similarity of Short Music Clips

Frontiers in Psychology, 2017
There is evidence from a number of recent studies that most listeners are able to extract information related to song identity, emotion, or genre from music excerpts with durations in the range of tenths of seconds. Because of these very short durations,
