Abstract
The Normalized Positive (NPOS) model is a rule-based model that predicts downbeat lo- cation and pattern complexity in rhythmical patterns. Though derived from several existing models, the NPOS model is particularly efiective at making correct predictions while at the same time having low complexity. In this paper, the details of the model are explored and a comparison is made to existing models. Several datasets are used to examine the complexity predictions of the model. Special attention is paid to the model's ability to account for the efiects of musical experience on beat induction.Keywords
