Fishing for complements with chord, scale, and rhythm nets

Daniel Harasim

The aim of this paper is to argue that complementation is an operation similarly fundamental to music theory as transposition and inversion. We focus on studying the chromatic complement mapping that translates diatonic seventh chords into 8-note scales wh ...

Interpreting Rhythm as Parsing: Syntactic-Processing Operations Predict the Migration of Visual Flashes as Perceived During Listening to Musical Rhythms

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Steffen Alexander Herff, Gabriele Cecchetti

Music can be interpreted by attributing syntactic relationships to sequential musical events, and, computationally, such musical interpretation represents an analogous combinatorial task to syntactic processing in language. While this perspective has been ...

Sex-dimorphic and age-dependent organization of 24-hour gene expression rhythms in humans

Felix Naef, Cédric Gobet, Lorenzo Talamanca

The circadian clock modulates human physiology. However, the organization of tissue-specific gene expression rhythms and how these depend on age and sex is not defined in humans. We combined data from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project with an a ...

Learning music composition with recurrent neural networks

Florian François Colombo

Throughout this thesis, we are interested in modeling music composition. To do so, we study the association of music theory concepts with the learning capabilities of recurrent neural networks. Especially, we explore numerical formalizations of music so th ...

Rhythmanalysis of Urban Events: Empirical Elements from the Montreux Jazz Festival

Luca Giovanni Pattaroni, Guillaume Simon Joseph Drevon, Lucien Jean Delley, Nils Hamel, Fabien Jérôme Jacot-Descombes

This article proposes an original approach to urban events mapping. At the theoretical level, the article is based on rhythmanalysis and recent research on urban rhythms. It contrasts with previous research by departing from everyday rhythms to tackle the ...

Prefrontal High Gamma in ECoG Tags Periodicity of Musical Rhythms in Perception and Imagination

Steffen Alexander Herff

Rhythmic auditory stimuli are known to elicit matching activity patterns in neural populations. Furthermore, recent research has established the particular importance of high-gamma brain activity in auditory processing by showing its involvement in auditor ...

The perceptual relevance of balance, evenness, and entropy in musical rhythms

Steffen Alexander Herff

There is an uncountable number of different ways of characterizing almost any given real-world stimulus. This necessitates finding stimulus features that are perceptually relevant - that is, they have distinct and independent effects on the perception and ...

Learning, Generating and Adapting Wave Gestures for Expressive Human-Robot Interaction

Sylvain Calinon

This study proposes a novel imitation learning approach for the stochastic generation of human-like rhythmic wave gestures and their modulation for effective non-verbal communication through a probabilistic formulation using joint angle data from human dem ...

Croiser les disciplines, se croiser dans l'indiscipline

Ludy Juliana González Villamizar, Laurie Daffe, Lucien Jean Delley

Force est de constater que la notion de « rythme », tout aussi polysémique et impalpable soit-elle, parvient malgré tout à polariser des discours provenant de disciplines aussi diverses que la géographie, la littérature, la musique, la danse, la sociologie ...

Harmonic Syntax in Time: Rhythm Improves Grammatical Models of Harmony

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Daniel Harasim

Music is hierarchically structured, both in how it is perceived by listeners and how it is composed. Such structure can be elegantly captured using probabilistic grammatical models similar to those used to study natural language. They address the complexit ...

What is the 'spectral diet' of humans?

Marilyne Andersen, Forrest Simon Webler

Our visual perception of the world - seeing form and colour or navigating the environment - depends on the interaction of light and matter in the environment. Light also has a more fundamental role in regulating rhythms in physiology and behaviour, as well ...

Can one detect atrial fibrillation using a wrist-type photoplethysmographic device?

Jean-Marc Vesin, Etienne Pruvot, Mathieu Lemay, Célestin Leupi, Sibylle Fallet, Philippe Renevey

This study aims at evaluating the potential of a wrist-type photoplethysmographic (PPG) device to discriminate between atrial fibrillation (AF) and other types of rhythm. Data from 17 patients undergoing catheter ablation of various arrhythmias were proces ...

Entrainment of Voluntary Movement to Undetected Auditory Regularities

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Leila Cammoun, Aaron Schurger

In physics “entrainment” refers to the synchronization of two coupled oscillators with similar fundamental frequencies. In behavioral science, entrainment refers to the tendency of humans to synchronize their movements with rhythmic stimuli. Here, we asked ...

Hierarchical Cardiac-Rhythm Classification Based on Electrocardiogram Morphology

David Atienza Alonso, Amir Aminifar, Dionisije Sopic, Elisabetta De Giovanni

Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is a type of cardiac arrhythmia that significantly increases the risk of stroke and heart failure. In general, in the case of patients affected by AF, their electrocardiogram (ECG) shows a typical pattern of irregular RR intervals ...

Transcriptional regulatory logic of the diurnal cycle in the mouse liver

Matteo Dal Peraro, Bart Deplancke, Felix Naef, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Benjamin Dieter Weger, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Irina Krier, Guillaume Rey, Alexandra Styliani Kalantzi, Jonathan Aryeh Sobel

Many organisms exhibit temporal rhythms in gene expression that propel diurnal cycles in physiology. In the liver of mammals, these rhythms are controlled by transcription-translation feedback loops of the core circadian clock and by feeding-fasting cycles ...

Faster embryonic segmentation through elevated Delta-Notch signalling

Andrew Charles Oates

An important step in understanding biological rhythms is the control of period. A multicellular, rhythmic patterning system termed the segmentation clock is thought to govern the sequential production of the vertebrate embryo's body segments, the somites. ...

A Salamander’s Flexible Spinal Network for Locomotion, Modeled at Two Levels of Abstraction

Auke Ijspeert, Andrej Bicanski, Jérémie Knüsel

Animals have to coordinate a large number of muscles in different ways to efficiently move at various speeds and in different and complex environments. This coordination is in large part based on central pattern generators (CPGs). These neural networks are ...

Modeling Discrete and Rhythmic Movements through Motor Primitives: A Review

Auke Ijspeert, Sarah Dégallier Rochat

Rhythmic and discrete movements are frequently considered separately in motor control, probably because different techniques are commonly used to study and model them. Yet, an increasing interest for a comprehensive model for movement generation requires t ...

The Rhythm of Bodily Self-Consciousness

Recent philosophical, psychological and neuroscientific theories suggest that bodily experience is crucial for the phenomenology of selfhood (i.e. the experience of 'being someone'). In this thesis I have shown that two essential aspects of bodily self-con ...

Adaptive Oscillators with Human-in-the-Loop: Proof of Concept for Assistance and Rehabilitation

Auke Ijspeert, Jesse van den Kieboom

Most recent findings in robot-assisted therapy suggest that the therapy is more successful if the patient actively participates to the movement (“assistance-as-needed”). In the present contribution, we propose a novel approach for designing highly flexible ...
