Harmonies and Emotion Expression in Piano Works – Based on sigh in piano works by Joe Hisaishi

Piano is a type of western musical instrument. Since its creation, people have been deeply attracted by its melodious sound and elegant temperament. In order to express emotions better with the piano, a lot of musicians and music amateurs have made joint efforts to create many piano playing skills, wherein harmony is a typical representative. Enjoying high fame in the world, Japanese animation has become one representative culture of this country. Success of Japanese animation is attributed to many factors. Except for real emotional expression as well as abundant and varied styles, the exquisite background music has played a dominant role. Joe Hisaishi is a Japanese pianist and composer enjoying the high reputation. He cooperates with Miyazaki Hayao –a Japanese cartoon master very tacitly. Close relations have been built between them based on the win-win goals. Application of sigh in Joe Hisaishi’s piano works can accurately express ideals and emotions of ？ gures, forming a unique style in his music works. The paper researches harmony application and expression of ideas and emotions in piano works based on application of sigh in Joe Hisa ishi’s works. In order to realize in-depth study, the paper also introduces the cartoonist Miyazaki Hayao who is closely related with Joe Hisaishi. Through combination of them, readers can understand the research more easily.

A Scientific Perspective of the Three Harmonies Principle of Taijiquan

The Three Harmonies helps to regulate whole-body motion in harmony by balancing and aligning the movements of the body segments.Taijiquan uses the fangsong-relaxation modality to resolve the switching back and forth of the active muscle forces and the passive tensional forces of tendons,ligaments and fascial tissues.Fangsong induces the modulation of the muscles to resettle in a better state of balance,thus is necessarily a manipulation of the fascial tissues enveloping the muscles,organs and structures.In so doing,fangsong-relaxation cultivates the cognition and sensation of the fascial tensional network,which traditional Taiji theory refers to as Qi.Taijiquan harnesses Qi in the discipline of body motion to balance and align the momenta of the body segments in force transmission.This gives rise to maximal force potential in balance-the force of neijin(internal strength)-in response of application.Crucially,the settling into balance by fangsong functions as a neutral countermovement in the stretch-shorten cycle that primes the muscle-tendon unit in an ever-ready state of action,which endows neijin with the liveliness of response.Secondly,the fangsong manipulation of the fascial tissues serves as a fascial massage and release that provides relief to chronic pain syndrome caused by tenseness of muscles and fascia,a therapy that accrues with the many health benefits of Taijiquan.Lastly,but not least,the attentiveness required in the fangsong process develops into the meditation component of the practice which brings tranquility and the insight of mindfulness.Taijiquan thus bestows the triple gems of neijin,health well-being,and equanimity.

Adaptive Cloud Intrusion Detection System Based on Pruned Exact Linear Time Technique

Cloud computing environments,characterized by dynamic scaling,distributed architectures,and complex work-loads,are increasingly targeted by malicious actors.These threats encompass unauthorized access,data breaches,denial-of-service attacks,and evolving malware variants.Traditional security solutions often struggle with the dynamic nature of cloud environments,highlighting the need for robust Adaptive Cloud Intrusion Detection Systems(CIDS).Existing adaptive CIDS solutions,while offering improved detection capabilities,often face limitations such as reliance on approximations for change point detection,hindering their precision in identifying anomalies.This can lead to missed attacks or an abundance of false alarms,impacting overall security effectiveness.To address these challenges,we propose ACIDS(Adaptive Cloud Intrusion Detection System)-PELT.This novel Adaptive CIDS framework leverages the Pruned Exact Linear Time(PELT)algorithm and a Support Vector Machine(SVM)for enhanced accuracy and efficiency.ACIDS-PELT comprises four key components:(1)Feature Selection:Utilizing a hybrid harmony search algorithm and the symmetrical uncertainty filter(HSO-SU)to identify the most relevant features that effectively differentiate between normal and anomalous network traffic in the cloud environment.(2)Surveillance:Employing the PELT algorithm to detect change points within the network traffic data,enabling the identification of anomalies and potential security threats with improved precision compared to existing approaches.(3)Training Set:Labeled network traffic data forms the training set used to train the SVM classifier to distinguish between normal and anomalous behaviour patterns.(4)Testing Set:The testing set evaluates ACIDS-PELT’s performance by measuring its accuracy,precision,and recall in detecting security threats within the cloud environment.We evaluate the performance of ACIDS-PELT using the NSL-KDD benchmark dataset.The results demonstrate that ACIDS-PELT outperforms existing cloud intrusion detection techniques in terms of accuracy,precision,and recall.This superiority stems from ACIDS-PELT’s ability to overcome limitations associated with approximation and imprecision in change point detection while offering a more accurate and precise approach to detecting security threats in dynamic cloud environments.

The Cultural Gene and Historical Experience of China’s Peaceful Development

The Western society pays close attention to China’s development,draws supposed commonalities between China and the emerging powers that have competed for international power in history,and uses the"Thucydides Trap"to continuously amplify the"threat"posed by the growth of China’s national strength.This point of view is based on the historical practice of Western countries that take competition as the supreme value and stems from the Western logic that"a strong country will seek hegemony".However,the core fallacy of applying such stereotypes to China’s development lies in the lack of a genuine understanding of China’s cultural traditions and historical practices.The thought of peaceful development is the inherent gene of the Chinese culture.China’s gene for peace refers to the ideological,cultural and historical tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Chinese nation to deal with interpersonal,social and international relations based on the principles of"harmony and peace the most precious","harmony in diversity",and"peace,concord and harmony",including the corresponding beliefs.

The Positive Significance of Confucian Civilization in Peace Building

The Confucian emphasis on benevolence and empathy can be applied in conflict resolution processes.When parties in conflict embrace these values,it becomes easier to find common ground,compromise,and work towards peaceful solutions.Confucian civilization,with its emphasis on ethics,harmony,and diplomacy,offers valuable contributions to peace-building efforts in the contemporary world.By promoting virtuous leadership,fostering cross-cultural understanding,and emphasizing ethical governance,Confucianism can play a positive role in achieving and maintaining global peace.Confucianism continues to exert significant influence in the contemporary world,particularly in the context of peace-building efforts.This article explores the positive significance of Confucian civilization in contributing to peace-building endeavors globally.
