Abstract

This paper describes an initial attempt on a music-driven digital violinist (MDV) system, which automatically generates animation of a violinist based on violin music. MDV first analyzes the input audio signal and transcribes it into music notes. Next it uses the notes to synthesize the animated video of a violinist. Tests on the prototype system show that it achieves adequate visual realism and near real-time performance.
