Mathematics is a far reaching discipline and its tools appear in many applications. In this paper we discuss its role in music and signal processing by revisiting the use of mathematics in algorithms that can extract chord information from…

Chopsticks constitute a simple yet versatile tool that humans have used for thousands of years to perform a variety of challenging tasks ranging from food manipulation to surgery. Applying such a simple tool in a diverse repertoire of…

As far as music is concerned, instruments have always been part of a cultural ?landscape? (on technical, expressive and symbolic levels). The present contribution explores the changes brought about by the shift that occurred during the 20th…

The time people spend in front of computers has been increasing steadily due to the role computers play in modern society. Individuals who sit in front of computers for an extended period of time, specifically with improper postures may…

Due to the fact that roughly sixty percent of the human body is essentially composed of water, the human body is inherently a conductive object, being able to, firstly, form an inherent electric field from the body to the surroundings and…

The drum kit, which has only been around for around 100 years, is a popular instrument in many music genres such as pop, rock, and jazz. However, the road to owning a kit is expensive, both financially and space-wise. Also, drums are more…

The paper presents a new study method of mechanic vibrations with the help of the data acquisition systems. The study of vibrations with the help of data acquisition systems allows the solving of some engineering problems connected to the…

A long-standing vision in computer science has been to evolve computing devices into proactive assistants that enhance our productivity, health and wellness, and many other facets of our lives. User digitization is crucial in achieving this…

Multimodal learning has driven innovation across various industries, particularly in the field of music. By enabling more intuitive interaction experiences and enhancing immersion, it not only lowers the entry barriers to the music but also…

Neuromorphic control is receiving growing attention due to the multifaceted advantages it brings over more classical control approaches, including: sparse and on-demand sensing, information transmission, and actuation; energy-efficient…

The tactile sensation of clothing is critical to wearer comfort. To reveal physical properties that make clothing comfortable, systematic collection of tactile data during sliding motion is required. We propose a robotic arm-based system…

Applying the lens of computation and information has been instrumental in driving the technological progress of our civilization as well as in empowering our understanding of the world around us. The digital computer was and for many still…

Obesity is a chronic disease that can lead to an increased risk of other serious chronic diseases and even death. We present switching and time-delayed feedback-based model free control methods for the dynamic management of body mass and…

3D human body shape and pose estimation from RGB images is a challenging problem with potential applications in augmented/virtual reality, healthcare and fitness technology and virtual retail. Recent solutions have focused on three types of…

Robotic-assisted orthopaedic surgeries demand accurate, automated leg manipulation for improved spatial accuracy to reduce iatrogenic damage. In this study, we propose novel rigid body designs and an optical tracking volume setup for…

We are concerned with a novel sensor-based gesture input/instruction technology which enables human beings to interact with computers conveniently. The human being wears an emitter on the finger or holds a digital pen that generates a time…

Background: An advantageous property of behavioural signals ,e.g. handwriting, in contrast to morphological ones, such as iris, fingerprint, hand geometry, etc., is the possibility to ask a user for a very rich amount of different tasks.…

We want to build robots that are useful in unstructured real world applications, such as doing work in the household. Grasping in particular is an important skill in this domain, yet it remains a challenge. One of the key hurdles is…

Musicians mostly have to rely on their ears when they want to analyze what they play, for example to detect errors. Since hearing is sequential, it is not possible to quickly grasp an overview over one or multiple recordings of a whole…

This paper presents a novel online capable method for simultaneous estimation of human motion in terms of segment orientations and positions along with sensor-to-segment calibration parameters from inertial sensors attached to the body. In…
