In this paper, we propose an autonomous, unsupervised learning of chord classification, based on the Neural Hidden Markov Model (HMM), and extend it to the Semi-Makov Model (HSMM) to integrate such additional contexts as the pitch-class histogram, the beat positions, and the preceding chord sequences. We train our model on a minimally pre-processed dataset in a mixture of major/minor pieces, expecting the models to learn the chord clusters in accordance with the contexts without assignment of tonality. Thereafter, we evaluate their performance by perplexity, and show that the added contexts would considerably improve the efficiency. In addition, we show that the proposed model reflects the context of major and minor in its state transitions, even though trained in mixed tonality.
