IDyOM v1.3



Dear All (with apologies for cross-posting),

I'm pleased to announce v1.3 of IDyOM (Information Dynamics of Music) - a system for constructing multiple-viewpoint, variable-order Markov models for predictive statistical modelling of musical structure. The system generates a conditional probability distribution representing the estimated likelihood of each event in a melodic sequence, given the preceding musical context; it computes Shannon entropy as a measure of uncertainty about the next event and information content as a measure of the unexpectedness of the event that actually follows.

Updates in this release include better information output during viewpoint selection, ability to specify minimum number of constituent viewpoints in a link during viewpoint selection, improvements to phrase and voice handling in Kern import, and several small fixes and enhancements.

The software and documentation are available at:
