Twenty‐nine participants completed subjective evaluations of the environment, emotional state surveys, and a Raven progressive matrices task with and without ambient music (d major, 74 bpm) under four lighting conditions (white, red, green, blue). White lighting yielded the highest ratings for visual clarity, brightness, happiness, and focus; red was ...

Periodical cicadas suffer legacy effects of century‐old forest removal
Abstract Periodical cicada (Magicicada spp.) ranges have continued to decline even as their habitat has rebounded from historic lows. This counterintuitive trajectory may be a consequence of Magicicada's limited dispersal capabilities combined with their requirement that individual host trees survive across decades. Indeed, we find that the presence of

Automatic Timbre Transformation Using Enhanced Diffusion Model
We present a novel timbre transfer model that uses an enhanced diffusion architecture to convert music from various instruments into Erhu timbre. The Erhu, a traditional Chinese instrument, is difficult to simulate due to its rich vibrato and smooth note

Musical Chemistry and Spectroscopy: Analogies Bridging Two Worlds in Multiple Dimensions
Music and spectroscopy speak the same language: that of fluctuations, line shapes, and ensembles. Herein, we establish useful analogies between music, chemistry, and spectroscopy, extending even to multidimensional and time‐resolved spectroscopies, with a mathematically‐grounded derivation and motivation.

Enhancing timbre model using MFCC and its time derivatives for music similarity estimation
One of the popular methods for content-based music similarity estimation is to model timbre with MFCC as a single multivariate Gaussian with full covariance matrix, then use symmetric Kullback-Leibler divergence.
