On 24th April 2014, André Holzapfel will present the paper titled “Section-level Modeling of Musical Audio for Linking Performances to Scores in Turkish Makam Music,” which I am one of the co-authors of, in the 40th IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP) 2015 in the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre, Brisbane, Australia. On its 40th anniversary, ICASSP is the world’s largest and most comprehensive technical conference focused on signal processing and its applications.

In the paper we present hierarchical hidden Markov model (HHMM) to align the scores of Turkish-Ottoman music with their corresponding recordings in the structure level. You can read the paper from here.
