Putting a Finger on Guitars and Algorithms
Sammanfattning:
Guitar tablature is a notation system widely used by
guitar players when learning to play songs. The notation
consists of information about which string and which fret
the guitarist should put his finger on. However, it does not
normally contain information on which fingers should be
put on which notes.
In this thesis we study existing methods related to incorporating
fingering information alongside musical notations.
Using this material, we define a set of factors that
affect the guitar fingering and then design an algorithm for
computing an optimal fingering for a tablature.
The final product is an algorithm that computes optimal
fingering positions according to the relevant factors.
The computed fingerings are evaluated by comparing them
to how experienced guitarists play the given melody.
Our results indicate that it is possible to produce optimal
fingerings algorithmically. This is a step forward in
helping beginner and intermediate guitar players in their
learning process.
