Automated identification of neural correlates of continuous variables (2014)
Journal Article
Daly, I., Hwang, F., Kirke, A., Malik, A., Weaver, J., Williams, D., …Nasuto, S. (2015). Automated identification of neural correlates of continuous variables. Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 242, 65-71. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jneumeth.2014.12.012

Background The electroencephalogram (EEG) may be described by a large number of different feature types and automated feature selection methods are needed in order to reliably identify features which correlate with continuous independent variables....

Investigating music tempo as a feedback mechanism for closed-loop BCI control (2014)
Journal Article
Daly, I., Williams, D., Hwang, F., Kirke, A., Malik, A., Roesch, E., …Nasuto, S. (2014). Investigating music tempo as a feedback mechanism for closed-loop BCI control. Brain-Computer Interfaces, 1(3-4), 158-169. https://doi.org/10.1080/2326263x.2014.979728

The feedback mechanism used in a brain-computer interface (BCI) forms an integral part of the closed-loop learning process required for successful operation of a BCI. However, ultimate success of the BCI may be dependent upon the modality of the feed... Read More about Investigating music tempo as a feedback mechanism for closed-loop BCI control.

Creative music neurotechnology with symphony of minds listening (2014)
Book Chapter
Miranda, E., Lloyd, D., Josipovic, Z., & Williams, D. (2014). Creative music neurotechnology with symphony of minds listening. In E. Miranda, & J. Castet (Eds.), Guide to Brain-Computer Music Interfacing (271-295). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-6584-2_12

A better understanding of the musical brain combined with technical advances in biomedical engineering and music technology is pivotal for the development of increasingly more sophisticated brain–computer music interfacing (BCMI) systems. BCMI resear... Read More about Creative music neurotechnology with symphony of minds listening.

Tracking timbral changes in metal productions from 1990 to 2013 (2014)
Journal Article
Williams, D. (2014). Tracking timbral changes in metal productions from 1990 to 2013. Metal music studies (Online), 1(1), 39-68. https://doi.org/10.1386/mms.1.1.39_1

The metal scene has undergone an evolution in sonic characteristics that is partially rooted in music technology developments and associated production techniques that have given rise to a set of identifiably distinct ‘metal’ timbres. The science of... Read More about Tracking timbral changes in metal productions from 1990 to 2013.

Changes in music tempo entrain movement related brain activity (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Daly, I., Hallowell, J., Hwang, F., Kirke, A., Malik, A., Roesch, E., …Nasuto, S. (2014, August). Changes in music tempo entrain movement related brain activity. Presented at 2014 36th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, Chicago, IL, USA

The neural mechanisms of music listening and appreciation are not yet completely understood. Based on the apparent relationship between the beats per minute (tempo) of music and the desire to move (for example feet tapping) induced while listening to...

Investigating affect in algorithmic composition systems (2014)
Journal Article
Williams, D., Kirke, A., Miranda, E., Roesch, E., Daly, I., & Nasuto, S. (2015). Investigating affect in algorithmic composition systems. Psychology of Music, 43(6), 831-854. https://doi.org/10.1177/0305735614543282

There has been a significant amount of work implementing systems for algorithmic composition with the intention of targeting specific emotional responses in the listener, but a full review of this work is not currently available. This gap creates a s... Read More about Investigating affect in algorithmic composition systems.

Neural correlates of emotional responses to music : An EEG study (2014)
Journal Article
Daly, I., Malik, A., Hwang, F., Roesch, E., Weaver, J., Kirke, A., …Nasuto, S. (2014). Neural correlates of emotional responses to music : An EEG study. Neuroscience Letters, 573, 52-57. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neulet.2014.05.003

This paper presents an EEG study into the neural correlates of music-induced emotions. We presented participants with a large dataset containing musical pieces in different styles, and asked them to report on their induced emotional responses. We...
