This project represents a natural evolution in the collaboration between waveDNA, a music software development company, and the SMART (Science of Music, Auditory Research and Technology) lab at Ryerson University. WaveDNA's unique focus lies in equipping its software with human intelligence based on empirical research, thereby providing a means of generating meaningful musical variations. This project aims to improve waveDNA's existing musical analysis and generation engines through new behavioural and electrophysiological experiments. Results of these experiments will guide the development of new algorithms in collaboration with waveDNA. Although existing music applications such as digital audio workstations have a great degree of functionality, they do not address the user's cognitive/emotional appraisals through intelligent interaction. We believe that this project will address this void and satisfy a broad base of customers including musicians and researchers.

该项目代表了音乐软件开发公司waveDNA与瑞尔森大学SMART（音乐科学，听觉研究和技术）实验室之间合作的自然演变。WaveDNA的独特之处在于它的软件配备了基于经验研究的人类智能，从而提供了一种生成有意义的音乐变体的方法。该项目旨在通过新的行为和电生理实验来改进waveDNA现有的音乐分析和生成引擎。这些实验的结果将指导与waveDNA合作开发新算法。虽然现有的音乐应用程序，如数字音频工作站具有很大程度的功能，他们不解决用户的认知/情感评价通过智能交互。我们相信，这个项目将解决这一空白，并满足包括音乐家和研究人员在内的广泛客户群。
