Abstract
Described herein are musical translation devices and methods of use thereof. Exemplary uses of musical translation devices include optimizing the understanding and/or recall of an input message for a user and improving a cognitive process in a user.
Claims22
A method of transforming textual input to a musical score comprising:
- receiving, by a first device, text input;
- transliterating the text input into a standardized phonemic representation of the text input;
- determining, for the phonemic text input, a plurality of spoken pause lengths and a plurality of spoken phoneme lengths;
- mapping the plurality of spoken pause lengths to a respective plurality of sung pause lengths;
- mapping the plurality of spoken phoneme lengths to a respective plurality of sung phoneme lengths;
- generating, from the plurality of sung pause lengths and the plurality of sung phoneme lengths, a timed text input;
- and
- transmitting, by the first device, message information including the timed text input to a second device such that the second device outputs a patterned musical message indicative of the text input based on the message information.

A musical translation device system comprising:
- a first device comprising:
- an input interface;
- a first processor;
- a first communication interface;
- and
- a first memory communicatively coupled to the first processor and comprising instructions that when executed by the first processor cause the first processor to:
- receive a text input at the input interface;
- transliterate the text input into a standardized phonemic representation of the text input;
- determine, for the phonemic text input, a plurality of spoken pause lengths and a plurality of spoken phoneme lengths;
- map the plurality of spoken pause lengths to a respective plurality of sung pause lengths;
- map the plurality of spoken phoneme lengths to a respective plurality of sung phoneme lengths;
- generate, from the plurality of sung pause lengths and the plurality of sung phoneme lengths, a timed text input;
- and
- transmit, via the first communication interface, message information including the timed text input;
- and
- a second device comprising:
- a second processor;
- a second communication interface;
- a transducer;
- and
- a second memory communicatively coupled to the second processor and comprising instructions that when executed by the second processor cause the second processor to:
- receive, at the second communication interface, the timed text input;
- and
- output, by the transducer, a patterned musical message based on the timed text input.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing thereon sequences of computer-executable instructions for operating a first device, the sequences of computer-executable instructions including instructions that instruct at least one processor to:
- receive a text input;
- transliterate the text input into a standardized phonemic representation of the text input;
- determine, for the phonemic text input, a plurality of spoken pause lengths and a plurality of spoken phoneme lengths;
- map the plurality of spoken pause lengths to a respective plurality of sung pause lengths;
- map the plurality of spoken phoneme lengths to a respective plurality of sung phoneme lengths;
- generate, from the plurality of sung pause lengths and the plurality of sung phoneme lengths, a timed text input;
- and
- transmit, by the first device, message information including the timed text input to a second device such that the second device outputs a patterned musical message indicative of the text input based on the message information.

A method of transforming textual input to a musical score comprising:
- receiving, by a first device, text input;
- mapping the text input to a sung input;
- generating, from the sung input, a timed text input;
- and
- transmitting, by the first device, message information including the timed text input to a second device such that the second device outputs a patterned musical message indicative of the text input based on the message information.
2 more elements
A method of transforming textual input to a musical score comprising:
- receiving, by a first device, text input;
- generating, based on the text input, a timed text input;
- generating a plurality of matching metrics for each of a respective plurality of portions of the timed text input against a plurality of melody segments;
- generating a patterned musical message from the timed text input and the plurality of melody segments based at least in part on the plurality of matching metrics;
- and
- transmitting, by the first device, message information including the timed text input to a second device such that the second device outputs the patterned musical message indicative of the text input based on the message information.
