论文摘要
弗拉门戈(Flamenco)是来自西班牙南部的富有性能的艺术音乐类型,吸引了越来越多的全球狂热者社区。由于其即兴创作和表现力的性质,其独特的音乐特征以及该类型在很大程度上没有证明的事实,弗拉门戈又带来了许多有趣的数学和计算挑战。音乐信息检索中的大多数现有方法是在流行或古典音乐的背景下开发的,通常不能很好地推广到非西方音乐传统,尤其是当基本的音乐理论假设不适合这些类型时。在最近的十年中,已经定义了与弗拉门戈音乐自动分析有关的许多计算问题,并提出了一些解决各种音乐方面的方法。本文概述了在弗拉门戈音乐的计算分析中出现的挑战,并概述了现有方法的概述。
Flamenco is a rich performance-oriented art music genre from Southern Spain which attracts a growing community of aficionados around the globe. Due to its improvisational and expressive nature, its unique musical characteristics, and the fact that the genre is largely undocumented, flamenco poses a number of interesting mathematical and computational challenges. Most existing approaches in Musical Information Retrieval (MIR) were developed in the context of popular or classical music and do often not generalize well to non-Western music traditions, in particular when the underlying music theoretical assumptions do not hold for these genres. Over the recent decade, a number of computational problems related to the automatic analysis of flamenco music have been defined and several methods addressing a variety of musical aspects have been proposed. This paper provides an overview of the challenges which arise in the context of computational analysis of flamenco music and outlines an overview of existing approaches.
