Our Time Schedule

The schedule in HIGH-M behaves parallel to the PhD-project taking place in it. The execution of the central study is planned within two years and consists of three single papers and several milestones over it's course. Along these milestones one can track the development and application of the new analysis system.

Project Report HIGH-M (September 2024)

By September 2024, the following goals of the HIGH-M project have been achieved
  • The Music Therapy Toolbox was further developed for a more precise analysis result
  • Central pre-processing procedures of the machine learning data set were created 
  • Two segmentation prototypes were created and are being evaluated
  • The first paper was finalised and submitted to a journal

Next, the following goals will be pursued: 

  • Both segmentation prototypes will be evaluated and finally applied to the dataset
  • Arguments and interaction types of the Autonomy Microanalysis will be formalised 
  • Central features for distinguishing the interaction types will be implemented digitally
