I haven't actually read all this post yet, but just thought I would
mention the one music-related n-network project I know of: at Bristol
'Digital  Music Research' group, doing feature extraction:


http://www.fen.bris.ac.uk/elec/research/ccr/dmr/news3.html

their site has not been updated for a while, so they may be further on
than they indicate.

I have been passively interested in n-nets ever since I was given the
opportunity to review 'Music and Connectionism'.

I would think Csound is not really ideally suited to ~researching~ n-net
algorithms (or training them), any more than you would want to code an
fft in it step by step; but a fully-trained net implemented as an opcode
should be able to run in Csound on a decent machine. So the interesting
question is - how would that be implemented. It is a plugin opcode, but
with a difference!
