Acoustic Conditions in Occupied Classrooms

open access: yes, 2021
Sound levels in 220 K-12 classrooms have been logged every 10 seconds during 36-hour periods spanning two occupied school days, at three different times throughout an academic year. The data have been parsed using k-means clustering into times when speech was occurring and times when speech was not occurring.

Real‐Time Collection Methods for Violin Training and Evaluation Data Using Wireless Sensor Networks

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
This graphical abstract illustrates the complete framework of real‐time violin training and evaluation based on Wireless Sensor Networks. The process begins with embedding multiple sensors—accelerometers, gyroscopes, pressure sensors, and piezoelectric sensors—on the violin and bow to capture motion, vibration, and force data during performance.
