Welcome to HMM Bach.
This demo shows how a computer can actually create music.
HMM Bach uses

techniques to
learn from existing music, then produce harmonisations
to new music.

Requirements: This demo requires Java (version 1.4+), a modern browser (use Mozilla for best results, although Internet Explorer version 6+ will work), and suitable Midi-player software (e.g. Windows Media Player or Timidity for Linux). If you have problems running this demo, please try this alternative simpler version of demo #1. | |||
Original research done at ANC by Moray Allan and Chris Williams. Demo programming by Daniel Winterstein with additional graphics by Joe Ruddy. There is a portable - and somewhat better - Linux-based version suitable for open-days, etc. Contact Diana Sisu for details. For technical information on HMM Bach, please see this paper (to be published in Advances in Neural Information Processing Systems , 2005).
