Abstract. Stochastic deterministic finite automata have been introduced and are used in a variety of settings. We use them to model musical styles: a same automaton can be used to...

A set of principles (based on Gestalt theory) governing how we group notes into meaningful groups has been widely accepted in the literature. Based on these principles, many diver...
