The investigation of artificial intelligence-based applications in music education

Abstract

The field of music education has garnered significant attention due to the burgeoning advancements in artificial intelligence technology. Currently, there are many works on applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to the field of music education, and this review aims to comprehensively summarize the application of AI methods in multiple subfields of music education. In this paper, according to the focus of AI technology, the areas of music education to which it has been applied are divided into four modules, namely personalized learning, automatic assessment, composition assistance and interactive teaching. Firstly, representative AI methods applied to each of these four subfields are introduced, including but not limited to: the principle of the AI method, the improvement brought by the application. The text then describes the current status of the application of these methods in their domains, discusses the limitations of the application, and makes brief conjectures on how to break through these limitations. The research in this review paper is important for the development of AI technology applied to the field of music education. At the same time, this review also provides directions and suggestions for future research to promote the further development of AI in the field of music education.
