Predicting Perceived Music Emotions with Respect to Instrument Combinations

Published in AAAI, 2023

We compare the accuracy difference between music emotion recognition models given music pieces as a whole versus music pieces separated by instruments. We provide empirical evidence that training Random Forest and Convolution Recurrent Neural Network with mixed instrumental music data conveys a better understanding of emotion than training the same models with music that are separated into each instrumental source

A Deterministic Neural Network Approach to Playing Gin Rummy

Published in AAAI, 2021

This paper describes a deterministic approach to building a fixed-strategy gin rummy player. We develop and evaluate both heuristic and neural network models for informing draw, discard, and knock decisions in the game.
