Abstract :
In this paper, we present soft computing tools and techniques aimed at realizing musical instruments that learn. Specifically we explore applications of neural network and fuzzy logic techniques to the design of instruments that form highly personalized relationships with their users through self-adaptation. We demonstrate techniques for adapting sensor arrays and techniques for realizing highly expressive real-time sound synthesis algorithms
