METHODSA systematic review of all comparative studies up to November 2016, without language restriction that were identified from MEDLINE and the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register (1960-2016), and EMBASE (1991-2016). Further searches were performed using the bibliographies of articles and abstracts from major conferences such as the ESCP, NCRI, ASGBI and ASCRS. MeSH and text word terms used included “sigmoidoscopy”, “music” and “endoscopy” and “anxiety”. All comparative studies reporting on the effect of music on anxiety or pain during flexible sigmoidoscopy, in adults, were included. Outcome data was extracted by 2 authors independently using outcome measures defined a priori. Quality assessment was performed. RESULTSA total of 4 articles published between 1994 and 2010, fulfilled the selection criteria. Data were extracted and analysed using OpenMetaAnalyst. Patients who listened to music during their flexible sigmoidoscopy had less anxiety compared to control groups [Random effects; SMD: 0.851 (0.467, 1.235), S.E = 0.196, P < 0.001]. There was no statistically significant heterogeneity (Q = 0.085, df = 1, P = 0.77, I<sup>2</sup> = 0). Patients who listened to music during their flexible sigmoidoscopy had less pain compared to those who did not, but this difference did not reach statistical significance [Random effects; SMD: 0.345 (-0.014, 0.705), S.E = 0.183, P = 0.06]. Patients who listened to music during their flexible sigmoidoscopy felt it was a useful intervention, compared to those who did not (P < 0.001). There was no statistically significant heterogeneity (P = 0.528, I<sup>2</sup> = 0). CONCLUSIONMusic appeared to benefit patients undergoing flexible sigmoidoscopies in relation to anxiety and was deemed a helpful intervention. Pain may also be reduced however further investigation is required to ascertain this.展开更多

Nine healthy participants (one man and eight women, aged 26 - 37 years) listened to 528 Hz and standard 440 Hz music on separate days. We measured salivary biomarkers of stress (cortisol, chromogranin A, and oxytocin) before and after exposure to music, and continuously recorded the activity of the autonomic nervous system. The Profile of Mood State, 2nd edition, was also administered as a subjective indicator of stress. In the 528 Hz condition, mean levels of cortisol significantly decreased, chromogranin A tended to decrease, and oxytocin significantly increased after music exposure. However, no significant change was observed in any salivary biomarkers in the 440 Hz condition. The ratio of low frequency to high frequency autonomic nervous system activity significantly decreased after exposure to both types of music, and the coefficient of variation of R-R intervals also significantly decreased, but only after exposure to 528 Hz music. Tension-anxiety and Total Mood Disturbance scores were significantly reduced after exposure to 528 Hz music, while there was no significant difference following 440 Hz music. These results suggest that the influence of music on the autonomic nervous system and endocrine system varies depending on the frequency of the music, and furthermore, that 528 Hz music has an especially strong stress-reducing effect, even following only five minutes of exposure.展开更多

These two sets of features can be shared by the classifier and coding module to reduce the total computational complexity, making our classification system suitable for multi-mode audio coding applications. A performance assessment and comparison of the features are made. The experiment results show that the ISFs and LSFs have similar good performance when using full covariance matrices in classification models and the ISFs perform slightly better when using diagonal matrices. Their statistical differences for speech and music signals are also revealed.展开更多

Specifically, musical performance parameters (i. e. vibrato expression) of the Waseda Flutist Robot No. 4 Refined IV (WF-4RIV) are to be manipulated. This research focused on enabling the WF-4RIV to interact with human players (musicians) in a natu- ral way. In this paper, as the first approach, a vision processing algorithm, which is able to track the 3Dorientation and position of a musical instrument, was developed. In particular, the robot acquires image data through two catneras attached to its head. Using color histogram matching and a particle filter, the position of the musician's hands on the inset are tracked. Analysis of this data determines orientation and location of the iustnment. These pa- rameters are mapped to manipulate the musical expression of the WF- 4RIV, more specifically sound vibrato and volume values. The authors present preliminary experiments to determine if the robot may dynamically change musical parameters while interacting with a human player (i.e. vibrato etc. ). From the experirnental results, they may confirm the feasibility of the interaction during the performance, although further research must be carried out to consider the physical constraints of the flutist robot.展开更多

Since there is no cure, all treatment is aimed at improving quality of life. One form of non-drug therapy which is barely recognized, is music therapy. The literature on its use and effect in patients with Huntington's disease is limited. We therefore performed a detailed literature survey in order to delineate the different types of music therapy interventions and their aims. Music therapy studies were included when targeting: (1) motor disturbances; (2) cognitive disturbances; (3) psychiatric disturbances; and (4) emotional/social disturbances. A total of eight studies that met these criteria were analyzed. We found that music therapy interventions vary throughout the different stages of the disease and are not yet applied optimally. Not the stage of the disease but the individual treatment goals seem to be more determinative for the music therapy indications. In conclusion, precise aims and methods in relation to the stage of the disease are not well determined. There is a need for systematic study of this treatment option.展开更多

Music education improves personal comprehensive development through psychological counseling and music therapy. With the deepeningunderstanding towards the role of music education, offering music classes is supported by many non-professional music colleges in China. Themusic education in colleges is not only a way to teach eastern and western musical knowledge, but also a way to enhance students ‘comprehensivequality. The ultimate purpose of music education is to develop and improve students’ personality, and provide a platform to cultivate top - notchtalents. However, there’re still some problems in music education, such as the music classes are not taken seriously, curriculum is backward,the system of music education is incomplete, which severely restricted the role of the music education playing in improvement of students’comprehensive quality and cultivation of top - notch talents. Facing these problems, based on the aims of people oriented and cultivating talents,we need to persist with our struggle in strengthening music education in the proportion of personnel training process with the result of collegestudents’ comprehensive quality, which can provide a strong supporting backup for developing top - notch talents.展开更多

文摘This study examined the stress-reducing effect on the endocrine system and the autonomic nervous system of music with a frequency of 528 Hz, which has recently attracted attention as a “healing” type of music. Nine healthy participants (one man and eight women, aged 26 - 37 years) listened to 528 Hz and standard 440 Hz music on separate days. We measured salivary biomarkers of stress (cortisol, chromogranin A, and oxytocin) before and after exposure to music, and continuously recorded the activity of the autonomic nervous system. The Profile of Mood State, 2nd edition, was also administered as a subjective indicator of stress. In the 528 Hz condition, mean levels of cortisol significantly decreased, chromogranin A tended to decrease, and oxytocin significantly increased after music exposure. However, no significant change was observed in any salivary biomarkers in the 440 Hz condition. The ratio of low frequency to high frequency autonomic nervous system activity significantly decreased after exposure to both types of music, and the coefficient of variation of R-R intervals also significantly decreased, but only after exposure to 528 Hz music. Tension-anxiety and Total Mood Disturbance scores were significantly reduced after exposure to 528 Hz music, while there was no significant difference following 440 Hz music. These results suggest that the influence of music on the autonomic nervous system and endocrine system varies depending on the frequency of the music, and furthermore, that 528 Hz music has an especially strong stress-reducing effect, even following only five minutes of exposure.

文摘The immittance spectral frequencies (ISFs) is proposed as a new set of classification features and compared with the linear spectral frequencies (LSFs) applied in a frame-level wideband speech/music discrimination system. These two sets of features can be shared by the classifier and coding module to reduce the total computational complexity, making our classification system suitable for multi-mode audio coding applications. A performance assessment and comparison of the features are made. The experiment results show that the ISFs and LSFs have similar good performance when using full covariance matrices in classification models and the ISFs perform slightly better when using diagonal matrices. Their statistical differences for speech and music signals are also revealed.
文摘The aim of this paper is to create an interface for humanrobot interaction. Specifically, musical performance parameters (i. e. vibrato expression) of the Waseda Flutist Robot No. 4 Refined IV (WF-4RIV) are to be manipulated.

Using color histogram matching and a particle filter, the position of the musician's hands on the inset are tracked. Analysis of this data determines orientation and location of the iustnment. These pa- rameters are mapped to manipulate the musical expression of the WF- 4RIV, more specifically sound vibrato and volume values. The authors present preliminary experiments to determine if the robot may dynamically change musical parameters while interacting with a human player (i.e. vibrato etc. ). From the experirnental results, they may confirm the feasibility of the interaction during the performance, although further research must be carried out to consider the physical constraints of the flutist robot.
文摘This paper addresses the problem of channel estimation in a multiuser multi-cell wireless communications system in which the base station(BS)is equipped with a very large number of antennas(also referred to as"massive multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO)").We consider a time-division duplexing(TDD)scheme,in which reciprocity between the uplink and downlink channels can be assumed.Channel estimation is essential for downlink beamforming in massive MIMO,nevertheless,the pilot contamination effect hinders accurate channel estimation,which leads to overall performance degradation.Benefitted from the asymptotic orthogonality between signal and interference subspaces for non-overlapping angle-of arrivals(AOAs)in the large-scale antenna system,we propose a multiple signals classification(MUSIC)based channel estimation algorithm during the uplink transmission.Analytical and numerical results verify complete pilot decontamination and the effectiveness of the proposed channel estimation algorithm in the multiuser multi-cell massive MIMO system.
文摘Huntington's disease is a progressive, neurodegenerative, and autosomal dominant disease characterized by motor- and psychiatric disturbances, and cognitive decline. Since there is no cure, all treatment is aimed at improving quality of life. One form of non-drug therapy which is barely recognized, is music therapy. The literature on its use and effect in patients with Huntington's disease is limited. We therefore performed a detailed literature survey in order to delineate the different types of music therapy interventions and their aims. Music therapy studies were included when targeting: (1) motor disturbances; (2) cognitive disturbances; (3) psychiatric disturbances; and (4) emotional/social disturbances. A total of eight studies that met these criteria were analyzed. We found that music therapy interventions vary throughout the different stages of the disease and are not yet applied optimally. Not the stage of the disease but the individual treatment goals seem to be more determinative for the music therapy indications. In conclusion, precise aims and methods in relation to the stage of the disease are not well determined. There is a need for systematic study of this treatment option.
文摘局部放电是衡量电力设备绝缘状态的重要指标,局放检测需要解决局放源定位问题。多重信号分类(multiple signal classification,MUSIC)采用全向天线作为接收阵列,可实现多源信号的超分辨率空间谱估计,但要求高信号采样率,且在低信噪比情况下抗干扰能力不足。为此,提出基于弧形阵列的Dir(directional)-MUSIC算法,采用定向天线接收信号的强度信息,实现低信噪比下的局放源波达方向估计。设计了接收局放信号的Vivaldi天线阵列,并在不同信噪比下对算法的有效性进行仿真验证。结果表明:在低信噪比-10 dB来波方向5°下角度误差为0.14°,优于MUSIC算法;阵列在信噪比10 dB,测向范围[-80°,80°]内定位均方根误差小于1.5°。证明了基于弧形阵列的Dir-MUSIC算法有效提高了局放定位精度,且对噪声具有良好的鲁棒性,具有用于局放检测的潜力。
文摘Music education mainly cultivates some basic qualities, such as the sense of morality, aesthetic taste, strong mind and creativepower. Music education improves personal comprehensive development through psychological counseling and music therapy. With the deepeningunderstanding towards the role of music education, offering music classes is supported by many non-professional music colleges in China. Themusic education in colleges is not only a way to teach eastern and western musical knowledge, but also a way to enhance students ‘comprehensivequality. The ultimate purpose of music education is to develop and improve students’ personality, and provide a platform to cultivate top - notchtalents. However, there’re still some problems in music education, such as the music classes are not taken seriously, curriculum is backward,the system of music education is incomplete, which severely restricted the role of the music education playing in improvement of students’comprehensive quality and cultivation of top - notch talents. Facing these problems, based on the aims of people oriented and cultivating talents,we need to persist with our struggle in strengthening music education in the proportion of personnel training process with the result of collegestudents’ comprehensive quality, which can provide a strong supporting backup for developing top - notch talents.
文摘In this paper, we conduct analysis on the optimization approaches of contemporary piano education system from the perspective of music knowledge integration. In the process of the piano teaching, teacher and school the training of musicianship as the key point of teaching. This is because the skill can through student plays to display directly, appraises the student performance technique quality an important criterion. However, the student has the excellent adept technique merely also by far insufficient, but also needs the high artistic aesthetic ability, not only need be able to appreciate the piano performance, but must be able to reveal the artistic aesthetic feature in the process of piano performance. Piano education as one of the ways of music education, and other subjects, there is the subject of the universal education as its educational ideas, educational ideas and teaching methods, a direct impact on the generation after generation of the comprehensive quality of education. Under this basis, we propose the new idea on the issues that will be beneficial.
