A Functional Taxonomy of Music Generation Systems
Digital advances have transformed the face of automatic music generation
since its beginnings at the dawn of computing. Despite the many breakthroughs,
issues such as the musical tasks targeted by different machines and the degree
to which they succeed remain open questions. We present a functional taxonomy
for music generation systems with reference to existing systems. The taxonomy
organizes systems according to the purposes for which they were designed. It
also reveals the inter-relatedness amongst the systems. This design-centered
approach contrasts with predominant methods-based surveys and facilitates the
identification of grand challenges to set the stage for new breakthroughs.Comment: survey, music generation, taxonomy, functional survey, survey,
