Authorship attribution for music: developments and challenges
It has been a while now that the two authors of this particular academic blog have been interested in computational methods applied to authorship attribution. Until now our research has focused on texts, mostly from the Middle Ages and the XVIIth century. Given our shared scientific interest for digital musicology, one question arised: can our methods designed for textual sources apply to scores ? Finding which compositor wrote a specific piece of music seems even more tricky than finding the author of text.
