Artificial Intelligence In Music Production: What Does It Mean For Artists? - DJ TechTools

#artificialintelligence

A lot of DJs and music producers are starting to wonder how these technologies could be implemented in their fields. In this article, DJTT's Steven Maude takes deep dive into current AI music projects, and how they could change the process of music creation in the very near future. From language translation, self-driving cars, to beating humans at traditional games or learning to play classic games from the modern era, artificial intelligence (AI) is a big deal in computer science right now. Thanks to the large data stores that, for better or worse, technology giants are collecting, and powerful graphics cards accelerating the math required, we're in a time of rapid progress in diverse fields. The natural question for DJs and producers: what are the possible implications for AI in music? But big technology names have looked at applying artificial intelligence techniques to music creation.


Mixing Times and Structural Inference for Bernoulli Autoregressive Processes

arXiv.org Machine Learning

We introduce a novel multivariate random process producing Bernoulli outputs per dimension, that can possibly formalize binary interactions in various graphical structures and can be used to model opinion dynamics, epidemics, financial and biological time series data, etc. We call this a Bernoulli Autoregressive Process (BAR). A BAR process models a discrete-time vector random sequence of $p$ scalar Bernoulli processes with autoregressive dynamics and corresponds to a particular Markov Chain. The benefit from the autoregressive dynamics is the description of a $2^p\times 2^p$ transition matrix by at most $pd$ effective parameters for some $d\ll p$ or by two sparse matrices of dimensions $p\times p^2$ and $p\times p$, respectively, parameterizing the transitions. Additionally, we show that the BAR process mixes rapidly, by proving that the mixing time is $O(\log p)$. The hidden constant in the previous mixing time bound depends explicitly on the values of the chain parameters and implicitly on the maximum allowed in-degree of a node in the corresponding graph. For a network with $p$ nodes, where each node has in-degree at most $d$ and corresponds to a scalar Bernoulli process generated by a BAR, we provide a greedy algorithm that can efficiently learn the structure of the underlying directed graph with a sample complexity proportional to the mixing time of the BAR process. The sample complexity of the proposed algorithm is nearly order-optimal as it is only a $\log p$ factor away from an information-theoretic lower bound. We present simulation results illustrating the performance of our algorithm in various setups, including a model for a biological signaling network.


A Political Cartoon and a Markov Chain

#artificialintelligence

Pat Bagley is easily my favorite political cartoonist, period. For the politically aware in Utah, he is almost legendary, enjoying superstar status. I've been aware of him since I was a kid, and I always loved his cartoons. Not only does his artistic style appeal to me, he has a way of illustrating a situation in politics that explains it more clearly than a thousand words. His cartoons are humorous, though darkly so. And with every one, you can't help but feel he's had the last word.


Opinion Mining - Sentiment Analysis and Beyond

@machinelearnbot

So you report with reasonable accuracies what the sentiment about a particular brand or product is. After publishing this report, your client comes back to you and says "Hey this is good. Now can you tell me ways in which I can convert the negative sentiments into positive sentiments?" – Sentiment Analysis stops there and we enter the realms of Opinion Mining. Opinion Mining is about having a deeper understanding of the review that was written. Typically, a detailed review will not just have a sentiment attached to it. It will have information and valuable feedback that can literally help to build the next strategy.

Which makes this bundle pretty important. And right now we are offering up The Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Bundle for just $39, that's 91% off of the regular price, making it a great time to pick up this bundle. There are four courses included in this bundle, each are typically $120.


The Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Bundle Indie Game Bundles

#artificialintelligence

Easy Natural Language Processing (NLP) in Python – Over this course you will build multiple practical systems using natural language processing (NLP), the branch of machine learning and data science that deals with text and speech. You'll start with a background on NLP before diving in, building a spam detector and a model for sentiment analysis in Python. Learning how to build these practical tools will give you an excellent window into the mechanisms that drive machine learning. Unsupervised Machine Learning Hidden Markov Models in Python – Data, in many forms, is presented in sequences: stock prices, language, credit scoring, etc. Being able to analyze them, therefore, is of invaluable importance. In this course you'll learn a machine learning algorithm – the Hidden Markov Model – to model sequences effectively.
