Roger Dannenberg

Saw Professor Roger Dannenberg (Carnegie-Mellon University) give a seminar on “Music understanding by computer”. His research mostly consists of developing methods for score-following, and musical accompaniment. The problem that I had with the research is that it is concerned with replicating tasks that humans are already good at (such as the musical accompaniment) whereas I am more interested in augmenting human abilities to achieve something beyond what is currently possible.
