Outline of Final Research Achievements

The objective of this research is the description of music composition process based on decision making processes. A new model that enables such description was proposed, and decisions are interconnected based on similarities. Multiple viewpoints are possible, and the method detected similar passages that were undetected by conventional "analise" methodology.
