Computer Music Journal Article on Composer Specific Music

A new article by Dorien Herremans, Kenneth Sörensen and David Martens was published in Computer Music Journal, entitled "Classification and Generation of Composer-Specific Music Using Global Feature Models and Variable Neighborhood Search".

Generating automatic piano fingerings with iterated local search

For his Master's thesis, Matteo Balliauw started working on automatically generating piano fingerings, supervised by dr. Dorien Herremans and dr. Daniel Palhazi Cuervo at the University of Antwerp. His initial work was published at MCM 2015 in London and presented by Dorien Herremans.

Bridges Seoul - Counterpoint generation with Optimization techniques

I gave a talk at the Bridges conference on Mathematics and Arts in Seoul, South-Korea. The topic was about the paper described details on the variable neighbourhood search algorithm that can efficiently generate music:
