Contour Indexer #385

Closed musicus closed 8 years ago

musicus commented 8 years ago

It would be great to a contour indexer for motivic fragments. The output should be a dataframe (, or the export output of the dataframe to JSON).

How would you suggest this work in terms of getting the contour/s of an entire piece? Should there be a "length" setting or something to look at that length of fragments?

musicus commented 8 years ago

Windowing motives, and specifying how long a motive should be. A motive should be at least 3 notes long, and at the longest should include all the notes of a line. However, the shorter motives may yield the higher amount of self-similar contour types.
