Content, progress and pedagogy of the module

Students are required to investigate sound and music computing from a formal perspective,work according to a scientific method, and report results in scientific forms of dissemination.

Learning objectives

Knowledge

Students who complete the module will gain knowledge, skills and competences as follows:

• Must be able to understand the core elements in sound processing, either considering sound as input modality (machine listening, such as segmentation and feature extraction, modeling and prediction, coding and classification, etc.), as output modality (sonic interaction design, new interfaces for musical expression).
• Must be able to understand principles of real-time sound processing, and music perception and cognition.

Skills

Students who complete the module will gain knowledge, skills and competences as follows:

• Must be able to apply theories of sound and music computing, to design, implement and evaluate a system which uses sound as input or output modality.

Competences

• Must be able to synthesize relevant theory, techniques and tools to produce new knowledge and/or solutions.
• Must be able to synthesize and discuss research-based knowledge in the area of sound and music computing, in the format of a scientific paper
