SUMMARY:Dr. Saul Green Memorial Lecture
DESCRIPTION:This year’s lecture will be presented by Dr. Sageev Oore a professor in the Faculty of Computer Science at Dalhousie University and Visiting Faculty Research Scientist\, Google Brain\, Google Research (2016-2018). Dr. Oore’s lecture title is : The Electric Composer: Music\, AI and being human. He will talk about neural networks learning to generate music and address questions such as:\n• How does it do that?\n• How does it sound?\n• Is it music? & is that music— human? \n \nDr. Sageev Oore is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Computer Science at Dalhousie University\, a Research Faculty Member at the Vector Institute for Artificial Intelligence in Toronto\, and works as a professional musician. His research is focused on using machine learning and deep learning techniques for music and art. He recently spent a year and a half as a visiting scientist at Google Brain (California) on the Magenta team\, where he worked on generative systems such as PerformanceRNN. Together with his brother Dani\, he co-created “Radical Cycle”\, a duo instrumental CD combining classical art songs with improvisation. He has performed as soloist with orchestras both as a classical soloist and as an improviser. Sageev studied piano performance with music teachers from Dalhousie\, Juilliard\, and UBC. He completed his undergraduate degree in Mathematics (Dalhousie)\, and MSc and PhD degrees in Computer Science (University of Toronto) working with Geoffrey Hinton.
