Mathematical Notation, Representation, and Visualization of Musical Rhythm: A Comparative Perspective

Several methods for the mathematical notation, representation, and visualization of musical rhythm at the symbolic level are illustrated and compared in terms of their advantages and drawbacks, as well as their suitability for particular applications.
