Sistema inteligente para o ensino do dedilhado pianístico - SIEDP.

Abstract

This dissertation describes the project, the implementation, the assembly of a prototype, and the obtained experimental results of an Intelligent System developed for Piano Fingering Teaching (SIEDP). The SIEDP is based on the Genetic Algorithm and Expert Systems paradigms, which are originated from Artificial Intelligence area. The software developed to find the optimum fingering of piano melodies is described. Mechanical and hardware construction details of a robotics hand capable to play the piano melodies are presented. The purpose of developed SIEDP is both to find the fingering of a piano's melody and to aid the music students in the visualisation of the movements needed to play the melody.
