This paper introduces a quantum-inspired computational framework for harmonic decision-making in music. The proposed approach formulates harmonization as an optimization problem within a structured combinatorial space, where multiple candidate chord sequences are evaluated under interacting musical constraints.
This paper presents the design and evaluation of a maintainable hybrid generative architecture for automated music harmony generation from melody. The proposed system combines quantum-inspired candidate exploration over overlapping melodic contexts with explicit rule-based optimization to balance generative flexibility and structural control.

We study generative modeling of Bach-style symbolic piano music using a shared MIDI corpus and three model families: autoregressive LSTMs with attention, latent-variable models including recurrent VAEs and vector-quantized VAEs, and generative adversarial networks. We compare their ability to model polyphonic note sequences, learn useful latent representations, and generate stylistically coherent compositions.

arXiv:2607. 05902v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Chamber music, as a highly precise multi-part interactive system, contains a logic of "role assignment and dynamic interaction" that provides an extremely valuable blueprint for exploring human-computer collaborative composition paradigms.
