Imposing Higher-Level Structure in Polyphonic Music Generation Using Convolutional Restricted Boltzmann Machines and Constraints

We introduce a method for imposing higher-level structure on generated, polyphonic music. A Convolutional Restricted Boltzmann Machine (C-RBM) as a generative model is combined with gradient des- cent constraint optimisation to provide further control over the generation process. Among other things,...
