Abstract: Techniques are described for automated musical-score-referenced evaluation of haptic-based rhythmic performance. An audiovisual representation of real-time progress through a musical score is output to a user. The output corresponds to progress through a sequence of score-notated rhythm (SNR) events at a tempo. During the outputting, haptic performance (HP) events are received from a user via a haptic interface as the user's rhythmic performance of the SNR events at the tempo. Automated techniques evaluate the user's performance to determine a rhythmic compatibility between the received HP events and evaluation data for the SNR events. Visual feedback is provided to the user to graphically map the evaluated performance to the SNR events on the musical score.
