I've been trying to do something similar, representing chord-kinds as sequences of intervals and matching the possible chord patterns to the notes. I've been basing it on the chord-labeling algorithm in a paper I found, "Algorithms for Chordal Analysis" by Bryan Pardo and William P. Birmingham, but there are a few situations where this doesn't label the correct chord. In particular when there are something like short arpeggios in the harmony and longer passing tones or suspensions in the melody, it gives more weight to the passing tones and suspensions. Is that similar to the strategy you used? Is there any way to deal with passing tones like this?
