Christopher Longuett-Higgins worked out the rules back in the 1970s.

The wikipedia biography doesn't bring out that side of his story too well, but in the late 1970's I was working at EMI Central Research which had recently published a paper saying that it was impossible to go from frequency information to musical notation, and the researchers were a bit peeved when he published a paper that spelled out the rules that let you do it. A few years later he published similar rules for extracting musical timing. The intelligence he applied was entirely natural, but he'd moved from theoretical chemistry to cognitive science by then, so I suppose he was part of the artificial intelligence community. He was a colleague of my wife, at the time, and I did get to meet him from tine to time.
