We propose a method to locate relations and constraints between a music score
and its impressions, by which we show that machine learning techniques may
provide a powerful tool for composing music and analyzing human feelings. We
examine its generality by modifying some arrangements to provide the subjects
with a specified impression.
This talk introduces some user interfaces, which are joint work with Shoichi
Takagi, Keisuke Nakamura and Masashi Oikawa. They are capable of predicting
feelings and creating new objects based on seed structures, such as spectrums
and their transition for sounds that have been extracted and are perceived as
favorable by the test subject.
