Abstract
A process for the automatic selection of musical or tonal compositions to be replayed from a collection of musical or tonal compositions includes the step of assigning evaluation data to each of said compositions which describe its characteristics. Parameters are established describing a target corresponding to a selected behavior of an audience. Status data is generated based on an evaluation of audience behavior. The parameters are then compared with the status data to generate requirement data based on the comparison. The requirement data is compared with the evaluation data and a composition is selected based on the comparison of the requirement data with the evaluation data. A device is also provided for the automatic selection of musical or tonal compositions.
Claims17
A process for the automatic selection of musical or tonal compositions to be replayed from a collection of musical or tonal compositions, which comprises the steps of:
- (a) assigning evaluation data to each of the compositions, said evaluation data for a respective composition describing characteristics of the composition;
- (b) establishing parameters describing a target corresponding to a selected behavior of an audience;
- (c) generating status data based on an evaluation of audience behavior;
- (d) comparing said parameters and said status data to generate requirement data based on the comparison;
- (e) comparing said requirement data with the evaluation data for said compositions;
- and
- (f) selecting a composition based on the comparison of said requirement data with the evaluation data.
A device for the automatic selection of musical or tonal compositions to be replayed from a collection of musical or tonal compositions, which comprises:
- (a) at least one audience-observing device for observing an audience;
- (b) a computing device coupled to the audience-observing device for evaluating information obtained from said audience-observing device, said computing device setting parameters describing a target corresponding to a selected audience behavior, comparing said information with said parameters, and selecting a composition based on the comparison.
