Outline of Final Research Achievements

Analysis of synbolic musical data clarified that use of musical chord depends on the decade of the music, in particular the single, two-chord, three chord progression were listed associated with the decades. The audio signal of popular music -the Japanese anime music- are analyzed by means of acoustical parameter, where the skewness of spectral rolloff and spectral flatness show tendency of the change of released decade. The results found out that 1) the effective frequency range of musical tunes is becomming wider and the power spectrum of the tunes are becoming flat as for modern tunes. A machine learning-based estimation method for the released decade shows meaningful results, where the accuracy of estimation by the method is almost same level as human's.
