Musical piece development analysis device, musical piece development analysis method and musical piece development analysis program
A music piece development analyzer includes: a comparison target sound detector configured to detect a sound production position of a comparison target sound in a form of a sound of a predetermined musical instrument from music piece data; a sound production pattern comparing unit configured to set at least two comparison sections each having a predetermined length in the music piece data, compare the at least two comparison sections in terms of a sound production pattern of the comparison target sound, and detect a similarity degree of the sound production pattern between the at least two comparison sections, and a development change-point determining unit configured to determine a development change-point of the music piece data based on the similarity degree.
1. A music piece development analyzer comprising:
a comparison target sound detector configured to detect a sound production position of a comparison target sound in a form of a sound of a predetermined musical instrument from music piece data;
a sound production pattern comparing unit configured to set at least two comparison sections each having a predetermined length in the music piece data, mutually compare the at least two comparison sections in terms of a sound production pattern of the comparison target sound according to presence or absence of the comparison target sound, and detect a similarity degree of the sound production pattern between the at least two comparison sections; and
a development change-point determining unit configured to determine a development change-point of the music piece data based on the similarity degree.
2. The music piece development analyzer according to claim 1 , wherein
the development change-point determining unit determines that the development change-point is present between the at least two comparison sections when the similarity degree between the at least two comparison sections is lower than a predetermined threshold.
3. The music piece development analyzer according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a music piece information acquiring unit configured to acquire beat position information, wherein
the comparison target sound detector is configured to divide each of the at least two comparison sections into sound production detection sections each defined by a semiquaver based on the beat position information, and detect presence or absence of the comparison target sound in each of the sound production detection sections.
4. The music piece development analyzer according to claim 1 , wherein
the at least two comparison sections comprises a first comparison section and a second comparison section, the first comparison section preceding and abutting on the second comparison section, and
the sound production pattern comparing unit is configured to compare the sound production pattern of the first comparison section with the sound production pattern of the second comparison section, and detect the similarity degree.
5. The music piece development analyzer according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a music piece information acquiring unit configured to acquire bar position information, wherein
the sound production pattern comparing unit is configured to define a candidate of the development change-point at a change point between bars based on the bar position information, mutually compare the at least two comparison sections each defined by eight bars in terms of the sound production pattern, and detect the similarity degree of the sound production pattern between the at least two comparison sections.
6. The music piece development analyzer according to claim 5 , wherein
the sound production pattern comparing unit is configured to exclude a predetermined non-comparison section among the at least two comparison sections each defined by eight bars from comparing of the sound production pattern, and
the predetermined non-comparison section is a fourth bar and an eighth bar of each of the at least two comparison sections.
7. The music piece development analyzer according to claim 5 , wherein
the sound production pattern comparing unit is configured to exclude a predetermined non-comparison section among the at least two comparison sections each defined by eight bars from comparing of the sound production pattern, and
the predetermined non-comparison section is a first beat of a first bar of each of the at least two comparison sections.
8. The music piece development analyzer according to claim 1 , wherein
the comparison target sound is a sound of a musical instrument configured to beat out rhythm.
9. The music piece development analyzer according to claim 8 , wherein
the comparison target sound is a sound of a bass drum.
10. A music piece development analysis method comprising:
detecting a sound production position of a predetermined comparison target sound from music piece data;
setting two comparison sections each having a predetermined length at different positions in the music piece data, comparing the two comparison sections in terms of a sound production pattern of the comparison target sound according to presence or absence of the comparison target sound, and detecting a similarity degree of the sound production pattern between the two comparison sections; and
determining a development change-point of the music piece data based on the similarity degree.
11. A medium storing a program code and being readable and executable by a computer, wherein
the program code instructs the computer to function as the music piece development analyzer according to claim 1 when the program code is read and executed by the computer.
