Style Music Accompaniment Using a Variable-length Genetic Algorithm with Chord Progression

The domain of computer music is an interesting area which combines computer science and music art. We propose a music accompaniment system using a variable-length genetic algorithm. Via the system one can make the music corresponded to his demands. In the style music accompaniment we analyze some important characteristic of pop music, and propose a new chromosome representation scheme to include the concept of rhyme, chord and melody. Chord progression is used as one of the evaluation criterions in this thesis.
The system allows a user to input melody, to select emotion and rhyme, and the system will automatically generate the appropriate accompaniment based on the database compiled from some music theory relating to the chord progression. In addition, the system allows a user to select his favorite accompaniment that generated by the system. Based on the user selected accompaniment the system will generate similar accompaniments for the user.
