In Part I [Purwins H, Herrera P, Grachten M, Hazan A, Marxer R, Serra X. Computational models of music perception and cognition
I: The perceptual and cognitive processing chain. Physics of Life Reviews 2008, in press, doi:10.1016/j.plrev.2008.03.004],
we addressed the study of cognitive processes that underlie auditory perception of music, and their neural correlates. The aim of
the present paper is to summarize empirical findings from music cognition research that are relevant to three prominent music
theoretic domains: rhythm, melody, and tonality. Attention is paid to how cognitive processes like category formation, stimulus
grouping, and expectation can account for the music theoretic key concepts in these domains, such as beat, meter, voice, consonance.
We give an overview of computational models that have been proposed in the literature for a variety of music processing
tasks related to rhythm, melody, and tonality. Although the present state-of-the-art in computational modeling of music cognition
definitely provides valuable resources for testing specific hypotheses and theories, we observe the need for models that integrate
the various aspects of music perception and cognition into a single framework. Such models should be able to account for aspects
that until now have only rarely been addressed in computational models of music cognition, like the active nature of perception
and the development of cognitive capacities from infancy to adulthood. |
