How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

A Functional Taxonomy of Music Generation Systems (2017, methodology): “ultant software was to model his own composing style, so that at any given point one could request a next note, next bar, and so on. In later experiments, Cope also modeled styles of other composers [Cope 1996]. Some of the music composed using this approach proved to be fairly successful. A more ex”
Creating creativity (2000, methodology): “Templates for fugues or sonatas and the strategies to recast motifs in the style of Beethoven or Joplin or other composers are realizable [Cope 1996].”
Imposing higher-level Structure in Polyphonic Music Generation using Convolutional Restricted Boltzmann Machines and Constraints (2016, background): “Cope (1996) imposes higher-level structure explicitly in a generation process.”
The Continuator: Musical Interaction With Style (2003, methodology): “On the other hand, music imitation systems precisely aim at representing stylistic information, to generate music in various styles: from the pioneering Illiac suite by Hiller and Isaacson (1959) to the automatic compositions of (Cope, 1996).”
