Model Cancer Growth in Music

Hyena is a program for simulating tumor growth in a musicXML encoded song.
MusicXML files can be downloaded from musescore.com and can be viewed using musescore or Flat.
A comprehensive list of software for reading musicXML files can be found at musicxml.com/software/.

Either select one of the following sample files:

Frere Jacques
Dona Nobis Pacem
C Major Scale

Or download a musicXML file from a site in this list: musicxml.com/music-in-musicxml/
And upload your file here:

Please note that invalid musicxml files will not be read by the program. Additionally, some musicxml files, particularly very complicated files or those with errors, may not produce a valid output file after running the simulation. This is a known bug that we are working on.

Select the type of therapy to be modeled:



0.1
0.0

Additionally convert output file to the following format(s) (may take several minutes):





0.5

Relative mutation rates for individual mutation types (as a subset of the total mutation rate above):
