  1. 1. The curious case of artificial intelligence : An analysis of the relationship between the EU medical device regulations and algorithmic decision systems used within the medical domain

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Juridiska institutionen

    Author : Pernilla Björklund; [2021]
    Keywords : medical device; algorithmic decision systems; ADS; MDR; medical AI;

    Abstract : The healthcare sector has become a key area for the development and application of new technology and, not least, Artificial Intelligence (AI). New reports are constantly being published about how this algorithm-based technology supports or performs various medical tasks. READ MORE

  3. 2. Constraint-Based Patterns : An examination of an algorithmic composition method

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik, konst och samhälle

    Author : Robin Lilja; [2021]
    Keywords : Algorithmic composition; Patterns; Contrast; Coherence; Contemporary music; Chamber ensemble; Orchestra; Spreadsheet; SuperCollider;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the composition of three different musical works through the use of my constraint-based patterns. I have explored the patterns through spreadsheets and also SuperCollider: a software for algorithmic composition and audio synthesis. READ MORE

  4. 3. Mapping The Valleys of The Uncanny : An investigation into a process and method, colliding with questions relating to what can be known to be real, within the field of algorithmic composition. Or if you prefer: The roles of instrumentation and timbre, as they unwittingly conspire to designate access, power, status, work and ultimately class.

    University essay from Kungl. Musikhögskolan/Institutionen för komposition, dirigering och musikteori

    Author : Daniel M Karlsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Algorithmic Composition;

    Abstract : We are free, from the shackles of the finite, and of the physical world. Sound now enjoys morphological freedom through a myriad of transformations. It is malleable to the utmost degree. We have at our disposal an astounding plethora of tools, with which we can manipulate and organise sound. READ MORE

  5. 4. MahlerNet : Unbounded Orchestral Music with Neural Networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Elias Lousseief; [2019]
    Keywords : music; composition; algorithmic composition; neural networks; recurrent neural networks; RNN; variational autoencoder; VAE; LSTM; BALSTM; MusicVAE; PerformanceRNN; BachProp; musik; komposition; algoritmisk komposition; neurala nätverk; recurrent neural networks; RNN; variational autoencoder; VAE; LSTM; BALSTM; MusicVAE; PerformanceRNN; BachProp;

    Abstract : Modelling music with mathematical and statistical methods in general, and with neural networks in particular, has a long history and has been well explored in the last decades. Exactly when the first attempt at strictly systematic music took place is hard to say; some would say in the days of Mozart, others would say even earlier, but it is safe to say that the field of algorithmic composition has a long history.

  6. 5. Technics and Music : some remarks on the process of exteriorization in music

    University essay from Kungl. Musikhögskolan/Institutionen för komposition, dirigering och musikteori

    Author : Matouš Hejl; [2017]
    Keywords : technics; technology; composition; computer music; algorithmic composition; electronic music; philosophy and music; Bernard Stiegler; aesthetics; musical time; technical systems in composition; pharmakon; speculative computation;

    Abstract : The delegating of thought, memory and action outside of the human body, inseparable from the process of individuation and identity formation, and the following implications for music establish an underlying theme of this text. It is a reflection on the process of "supplementation," of prosthetization or exteriorization in the recent and contemporary milieu of music making, in which nothing is any longer immediately at hand, where everything is found mediated and instrumentalized, technicized, unbalanced.
