Applying subgroup discovery for the analysis of string quartet movements
2010
Descriptive and predictive analyses of symbolic music data assist in understanding the properties that characterize specific genres, movements and composers. Subgroup Discovery, a machine learning technique lying on the intersection between these types of analysis, is applied on a dataset of string quartet movements composed by either Haydn or Mozart. The resulting rules describe subgroups of movements for each composer, which are examined manually, and we investigate whether these subgroups correlate with metadata such as type of movement or period. In addition to this descriptive analysis, the obtained rules are used for the predictive task of composer classification; results are compared with previous results on this corpus.
