Note events are described with a hidden Markov observation model (HMM) using four musical features: pitch, voicing, accent, likelihoods and metrical accent. The model uses these features to calculate pitch note−transition for note the likelihoods of different notes and performs note segmentation. probabilities model states The musicological model applies key estimation and the likelihoods of two-note and three-note sequences to determine transition like- Mu
