Computer-aided composition method of children's song based on grammatical evolution

Abstract

Computer-aided music creation has become a key research direction. Grammatical Evolution (abbreviation GE) as a new evolutionary computation technique based on formal grammar is applied for composing children's songs. A children's song composition method based on GE is proposed in this paper and proves to be feasible and effective with experiments. This method provides a viable and meaningful idea for computer-aided music creation. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
