To inspect how the different sensitivities in BAS (or BIS) moderate on the HRV pattern stimulated by positive or negative affective sound, we measured the electrocardiogram (ECG) of 25 students, consisted of 4 groups depending on the BAS (or BIS) sensitivity, while listening music or being exposed to noise. The power spectral density of HRV was derived from the ECG, and the power of HRV was calculated for 3 major frequency ranges (low frequency [LF], medium frequency [MF], and high frequency [HF]). We found that the index MF/(LF+HF), while listening music, was 20 % higher in the individuals with a low BIS but high BAS than in the individuals with a low sensitivity In both BIS and BAS. Moreover, in the former group this index was 30 % higher while listening music than while being exposed to noise. From these results we suggest that individuals with a low BIS but high BAS be more sensitive to positive affective stimuli than other groups, and the index MF/(LF+HF) be applicable to evaluate positive affects.

The purpose of this study was to classify apparel fabrics according to rustling sounds and to analyze their transformed colors and mechanical properties. The rustling sounds of apparel fabrics were recorded and then transformed into colors using Mori's color-transforming program. The specimens were clustered into five groups according to sound properties, and each group was named as 'Silky', 'Crispy', 'Paper-like', 'Worsted', and 'Flaxy', respectively. The Silky consisted of smooth and soft silk fabrics had the lowest value of LPT, $\Delta$f ARC, loudness(z) and sharpness(z). Their transformed colors showed lots of red portion and color counts. The Crispy with crepe fabrics showed relatively low loudness(z) and sharpness(z), but diverse colors and color counts were appeared. The Paper-like showed the highest value of LPT, $\Delta$f and loudness(z). The Worsted composed of wool and wool-like fabrics showed high values of LPT, $\Delta$f loudness(z) and sharpness(z). The transformed colors of the Paper-like and Worsted showed the blue mostly but color counts were less than the others. The Flaxy with rugged flax fabric had the highest fluctuation strength, and their transformed colors showed diversity.

본 연구는 가공방법이 다른 투습발수직물의 마찰 속도별 직물마찰음의 소리특성과 주관적 평가간의 관계를 분석하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 스포츠웨어용 투습발수직물 중 가공방법이 다른 4 종(PU 건식코팅, PU습식코팅, 시레가공, 라미네이팅)의 나일론 100% 시료를 대상으로 실험하였다. 마찰속도의 상세 설정이 가능한 직물소리 시뮬레이터 v. 4.0으로 제어가 되는 직물마찰음 발생장치를 사용하여 직물마찰음을 발생시켜 녹음하였다. 직물의 마찰 속도는 동작(walking, jogging, running)시 팔과 몸통 사이의 마찰속도를 분석하여 이 속도에 따라 직물마찰음을 발생시켰고, Sound quality system으로 7 가지(SPL, ${\triangle}L$, ${\triangle}f$, Loudness(Z), Sharpness(Z), Roughness(Z). Fluctuation Strength(Z)) 소리특성을 분석하였다. 주관적 평가는 9 개의 형용사 쌍에 대해 의미미분척도로 평가되었다. 소리특성 분석 결과, 속도별 소리특성은 가공방법에 따른 차이 없이 walking 시가 가장 덜 시끄러운 소리가 발생하였고, 가공방법에 따라서는 마찰속도에 따라 약간 차이가 있지만 라미네이팅가공을 한 시료가 가장 날카로운 소리를 발생시켰다. 주관적 평가 결과, '거슬리는'과 '불쾌한'의 감성에 대해서는 walking, jogging, running의 순서로, 시레가공, 라미네이팅, PU건식코팅, PU 습식코팅의 순서로 증가하였다.

Recently in the mobile market, the communication technology which bases on the sense of sight, sound, and touch has been developed. However, human beings uses all five - vision, auditory, palatory, olfactory, and tactile - senses to communicate. Therefore, the current paper presents a technology which enables individuals to be aware of other people's emotions through a machinery device. This is achieved by the machine perceiving the tone of the voice, body temperature, pulse, and other biometric signals to recognize the emotion the dispatching individual is experiencing. Once the emotion is recognized, a scent is emitted to the receiving individual. A system which coordinates the emission of scent according to emotional changes is proposed.

This thesis presents an emotion-based contents player platform that can change its visual and aural components as user's emotions. It analyzes the emotion as pleasant, unpleasant, aroused, and relaxed based on the physiological signals and the user's active response. Accordingly. the system reorganizes graphical and aural stimuli, such as, light, color, sound, in real-time. It can be used to develop and show the emotional contents and also be applied for the systematic analysis to find out how the components would affect the emotion. This paper describes overall the system architecture and the implementations of the sub-systems, as well as the actual contents built on top of the platform.

Recently, with the development of communication technology, it has become possible to collect various sensor data that indicate the environmental stimuli within a space. In this paper, we propose a group emotion prediction system using a modular Bayesian network that was designed considering the psychological impact of environmental stimuli. A Bayesian network can compensate for the uncertain and incomplete characteristics of the sensor data by the probabilistic consideration of the evidence for reasoning. Also, modularizing the Bayesian network has enabled flexible response and efficient reasoning of environmental stimulus fluctuations within the space. To verify the performance of the system, we predict public emotion based on the brightness, volume, temperature, humidity, color temperature, sound, smell, and group emotion data collected in a kindergarten. Experimental results show that the accuracy of the proposed method is 85% greater than that of other classification methods. Using quantitative and qualitative analyses, we explore the possibilities and limitations of probabilistic methodology for predicting group emotion.

Many studies have shown that musical dissonance generally evokes negative affect, but few studies detail how distinct dissonant intervals, ranging in various roughness, influence emotions and cognition. This research entailed two experiments to confirm whether varying musical intervals of dissonance trigger particular negative emotions and increase cognitive interference. Experiment 1 assumed that different dissonant intervals would elicit distinct negative emotions. In a survey involving 131 participants, there was an overwhelming consensus that dissonant intervals elicited stronger high arousal negative affect than low arousal negative affect. The major 7th degree was found to evoke a significantly stronger feeling of scared. Experiment 2 investigated whether emotions-affecting dissonance would have an enhancing effect on cognitive interference. According to a color-word Stroop task conducted on 81 participants, the presence of any dissonant sound caused significantly higher reaction times and error rates than in the absence of sound. In particular, the minor 2nd degree was cognitively the most disruptive and associated with the slowest reaction times. This paper shows how different ranges of dissonance can effectively influence negative affect and heighten cognitive interference.

Recent performing-art has a trend to be new cultural contents style which mixes various genre not just traditional way. Especially in stage performance, unique performance is playing using high technology and image. In sound performance, one of technology, a new experiment is trying which re-analyze the sound and mixes the result with image. But in public performance we have a technical difficulty with making visualization regarding the sound in realtime. Because we can not make visualization with instant sound from performers and audience it is difficult to interact smoothly between performer and audience. To resolve this kind of restriction, this paper suggests Real-time sound visualization. And we use string music instrument for sound source. Using the MaxMSP/Jitter based the Midi, we build image control system then we test and control the image with Korg Nano Kontrol. With above experiment we can verify verious emotion, feeling and rhythm of performer according to performance environment and also we can verify the real time interactive image which can be changed momently by performer's action.

The purpose of this study is to reassert the important role of sound design in creating narrative space in films. The main focus is on re-interpreting Chion's sound space composition as a narrative structure. The sound design process has been analyzed to find that the physical properties of sound are purposely manipulated to create the layers of sound to be perceived by the audience in the same way as human perception and cognition of the actual reality work, eventually to create the cinematic reality. The hierarchy of the layers is determined by the importance of the narrative information contained in each sound, with the higher layers being appropriate to convey the information of the narrative, and the lower layers being efficient to deliver the emotion to the audience. With this idea, each of the Chion's space composition is explained as a distinctive area in telling a story with the separate narrative role from the others.
