About The Project

MusicBot was a software project for the course SSC0713 - Evolutionary systems applied to robotics, at ICMC - USP, 2nd semester of 2017. The subjects treated were:

'Introduction to systemic view. Types of evolutionary systems. Systems modeling techniques and direct, indirect and mixed representations. Major evolutionary algorithms in the literature. Real-world applications (financial market, bioinformatics, task scheduling and production planning in industries) and robotic (automated synthesis system as antennas, controllers, test and verification of microprocessors, signal processing, computer vision and navigation robots).'

For more information about the course check here.

The bot generates music based on the concepts of dissonance/consonance and cent scale to produce 'pleasant' music for the ears. For more details check the document here.
