In a project with Dr. Bogdan Nita at Montclair State University I worked on connecting my passions of mathematics, music, and computer science. I developed a novel algorithm for motif extraction that found mathematically transformed motifs in inputted pieces. This work was part of a larger project identifying these motifs in Bach’s compositions. I published and presented a paper on this part of the project at INTED 2023 and have a paper forthcoming in UMAP journal. The citations and INTED paper are below.
