Abstract

This study analyzes music using a stochastic process, particularly, the Vasicek model. This approach interprets note progression in a song as a mean-reverting process, allowing the estimation of three parameters such as the speed of the revision to the mean, long-term level of the mean, and volatility. In addition, the entropy is evaluated for each song to identify the randomness of rise-fall patterns for each music genre. Our results characterize certain types of music and could be used to create new indicators for music classification.
