RHYTHMIC STRUCTURE OFTEN FAVORS a particular beat that is marked by frequent tone onsets and grouping accents. Using rhythms similar to those of Povel and Essens (1985), we asked musically trained participants to tap on physically or mentally imposed beats that either coincided with the favored beat or were phase-shifted relative to it. Surprisingly, tapping was equally stable. Actually, variability tended to be lowest when the imposed beat was in anti-phase with the favored beat; however, this tendency was reversed when participants were instructed to tap in anti-phase with the beat.

Most convolutional neural networks (CNNs) used to classify electrocardiogram (ECG) beats tend to focus only on the beat, ignoring its relationships with its surrounding beats. This study aimed to propose a hybrid convolutional neural network (HCNN) structure, which classified ECG beats based on the beat's morphology and relationship such as RR intervals. The difference between the HCNN and the traditional CNN lies in the fact that the relationship can be added to any layer in the former. The HCNN was fed with RR intervals at 3 different positions, trained using data from 2170 patients. It was

While recent research has employed vibrotactile feedback as a means of communication, one novel form of vibrotactile feedback involves the generation of “beats”. They are amplitude-modulated vibratory signals that can be created by sending multiple sinusoidal signals at dissonant frequencies (Lim, Kyung, & Kwon, 2012; Yang et al., 2014). The resulting perception of a rising-and-falling amplitude signal (a single “beat”), can be characterized per unit time as beat frequency, which is a function of the difference between the two input signal frequencies.

In everyday life, we group and subdivide time to understand the sensory environment surrounding us.

When you hear music, you experience a repeating pulse that you naturally tap along to—you feel a beat. But you can feel a beat differently under sounds you hear as otherwise alike. Heard each way, things sound different. But, heard each way, nothing seems to change. So why do things sound different? I argue that, surprisingly, the usual theories of perception have no good answer. I then develop a view on which different ways of feeling a beat are different ways of perceiving the same mind-independent features of things. On this view, feeling a beat is hearing sounds as organized within periods

Abstract:
In this study, the morphology of the PPG signal has been analyzed to be a potential cardiovascular marker for physiological stress. The morphology of the PPG signal was quantified as signal quality index by comparing the template beat (extracted from resting conditions) to the PPG beats recorded during vigorous physical activity. Data was taken from eight subjects where they performed some physical activities ranging from low to high intensity. It was found that, the mean and standard deviation of correlation coefficient between non-stress condition template beat and annotated PPG beat, 89.43±

Abstract:
AbstractThe current study uses principles from Cognitive Grammar to better account for the symbolic integration of gesture and speech. Drawing on data collected from language use, we examine the use of two attention-directing strategies that are expressed through gesture, beats and pointing. It has been claimed that beats convey no semantic information. We propose that beat gestures are symbolic structures. It has also been noted that beats are often overlaid on other gestures. To date, however, no detailed explanation has been offered to account for the conceptual and phonological integration

Abstract:
The process of creating music involves various techniques, including beat detection and classification. This research paper proposes a novel approach to detecting and classifying beats in music production using a recurrent neural network with long short-term memory (RNN-LSTM) algorithm. The proposed method uses a set of features that are extracted from the audio signal, including spectral flux, zero- crossing rate, and energy, to train the RNN-LSTM model. The model is trained using a large dataset of music tracks and is capable of predicting the beats and their respective classifications accur

Abstract:
Pulsus alternans is a condition in which the arterial pressure generated by the heart oscillates between two levels on a beat-to-beat basis. We evaluated the onset of pulsus alternans in chronically instrumented dogs subjected to tachycardia and inferior vena caval occlusion. During pulsus alternans, the left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic volume (EDV) was larger before the strong beats (28.7 +/- 5.3 vs. 25.9 +/- 4.5 ml, P less than 0.001 by paired t test), suggesting that the Frank-Starling mechanism participates in the alternating difference in end-systolic pressure.

Abstract:
Pericardial constraint and ventricular interaction influence left ventricular (LV) performance when preload is high. However, it is unclear if these constraining forces modulate LV filling when the heart is unloaded, such as during upright posture, in humans. Fifty healthy individuals underwent right heart catheterization to measure pulmonary capillary wedge (PCWP) and right atrial pressure (RAP). To evaluate the effects of pericardial constraint on hemodynamics, transmural filling pressure (LVTMP) was defined as PCWP-RAP. Beat-to-beat blood pressure (BP) waveforms were recorded, and stroke vo

Nonlinear dynamics have been shown to be important in describing a large number of complex physiological systems. This work examined the dynamics of the relatively simple neurogenic heart of the lobster Homarus americanus. A non-invasive device was used to collect continuous data of spontaneous heart beats, and time series of consecutive beat-to-beat intervals were generated from these data. This study was concerned with dynamic changes in beat-to-beat intervals that were induced by external effects including changes in both the level of activity and body temperature.

Classification of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals plays an important role in clinical diagnosis of heart disease. This paper proposes the design of an efficient system for classification of the normal beat (N), ventricular ectopic beat (V), supraventricular ectopic beat (S), fusion beat (F), and unknown beat (Q) using a mixture of features. In this paper, two different feature extraction methods are proposed for classification of ECG beats: (i) S-transform based features along with temporal features and (ii) mixture of ST and WT based features along with temporal features.

Abstract:
This paper gives the first description of the male drumming call of Besdolus ventralis. Based on the examination of a single male specimen of this rare stonefly species its male call is composed of 3 beat groups, each containing 3-6 beats repeated at decreasing interbeat intervals. Beat groups are separated by 184-212 ms intergroup intervals. Call duration varied between 496-549 ms at ambient air temperature 18.7-20.4 degrees of Celsius. These results show that the male call of B. ventralis is clearly different from the diphasic call of B. ravizzarum, and is rather similar to that of B. bicolo

Pairs of locusts flying in tandem in a wind tunnel are known to couple their wing-beats intermittently. The rhythmically oscillating air flow from the front locust's wing-beat, detected by the rear individual, appears to convey the timing information for coupling. Three predictions of this arrangement were tested quantitatively in this study. (1) Given that the oscillating air flow has a wavelength of 7.5 cm, placing the rear locust 7.5 or 15 cm behind the front one should produce the same phase of coupling, whereas placing it at an intermediate distance of 11 cm should produce an opposite pha

Because of the close proximity to the piers, the system has a footprint significantly smaller than those of the other available options.
