Probabilistic Interactive Installations

We present a description of two small audio/visual immersive installations. The main framework is an interactive structure that enables multiple participants to generate jazz improvisations, loosely speaking. The first uses a Bayesian Network to respond to sung or played pitches with machine pitches, in a kind of constrained harmonic way. The second uses Bayesian Networks and Hidden Markov Models to track human motion, play reactive chords, and to respond to pitches both aurally and visually.
