A data-driven approach to violin making [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Of all the characteristics of a violin, those that concern its shape are probably the most important ones, as the violin maker has complete control over them. Contemporary violin making, however, is still based more on tradition than understanding, and a

Stiffening Cello Bridges with Design

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
In instruments of the violin family, the bridge is the part in charge of transferring the vibrational energy of the strings into the body and therefore contributes greatly to the sound of the instrument. The bridge needs to be light enough to efficiently

The impact of alkaline treatments on elasticity in spruce tonewood

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
It is commonly believed that violins sound differently when finished. However, if the role of varnishes on the vibrational properties of these musical instruments is well-established, how the first components of the complete wood finish impact on the ...

Violin: A Large-Scale Dataset for Video-and-Language Inference [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2020
We introduce a new task, Video-and-Language Inference, for joint multimodal understanding of video and text. Given a video clip with aligned subtitles as premise, paired with a natural language hypothesis based on the video content, a model needs to ...
