Abstract:
This paper attempt to investigate the relationships between relaxation effect of music and rhythm of human body (in this paper fingerplethysmogram (so called ”pulse”) is adopted) using EEG and HRV based two relaxation indicators. We focus on following viewpoints: synchronization between pulse and music, the tendency of pulse beat and pulse-music tempo ratio (µ). This paper reports the experimental results that the pulse decreasing state is effective for EEG based indicator while HRV based indicator is high value at the pulse increasing state. Furthermore, we classify subjects into 3 groups by the analysis of synchronization between pulse and music tempo. This papar also reports the analysis of relationships between pulse-music tempo ratio (µ) and relaxation effect under the classification.
