Past Research

Dr. Anna Shvets' previous research spans a wide range of interdisciplinary approaches, focusing on the integration of technology and cognitive science into music education, analysis, and composition. Her work has explored innovative methods in tonal harmony, graph-based representations, and the mathematical foundations of musical form, while also advancing the development of e-learning tools and applications for music education.

Graph-Based Representation in Music Harmony: Dr. Shvets developed a graph-based system for representing harmonic structures, which simplifies the understanding and analysis of tonal harmony. This system is structured as a network of harmonic relationships, visualized through graphs, and has been applied to both educational and analytical contexts. A significant portion of Dr. Shvets' research has focused on the application of graph systems for music analysis and education. These studies formed the basis for the interactive e-learning applications she later developed, contributing to significant advancements in distance learning for music theory.

Mathematical and Cognitive Foundations in Music Analysis: Dr. Shvets has extensively studied the mathematical bases of musical form, particularly in the works of composer Arvo Pärt. Her 2014 publication, "Mathematical Bases of the Form Construction in Arvo Pärt's Music", explores the underlying mathematical logic of Pärt's compositions, revealing how pseudo-code can represent the form and structure of his works. This research, combined with her earlier work "'Interactive application for visualization of the form of written postmodern music" (2013), delves into the intersection of postmodernism and mathematical structures in music, providing deep insights into the construction of Pärt's unique compositional style.

Music Modeling: Her research on Arvo Pärt's music was crucial in modeling musical form in the OpenMusic environment, as described in her work "Modelling Arvo Pärt's Music with OpenMusic" (2014). This research demonstrated how Pärt's musical form could be understood through mathematical logic and applied in algorithmic music composition. Her approach to analyzing and modeling music using AI and mathematical principles has contributed to both theoretical and practical advancements in the field.

Impact on Music Education: Throughout her research, Dr. Shvets has remained focused on improving music education through technology. Her work on visualization strategies in music harmony courses ("Visualization Strategies in the E-learning Course on Music Harmony", 2016) demonstrated that students benefited from graph-based representations of harmonic relationships, resulting in better retention and comprehension. Similarly, in her book chapter "Visualization Impact on the Effectiveness of Music Harmony Knowledge Assimilation" (2015), she emphasized the role of visual tools in enhancing the learning experience.

Conclusion: Dr. Shvets' research has consistently aimed at bridging the gap between traditional music theory and modern technological advancements. From graph-based representations of harmony to cognitive approaches in e-learning, her contributions have revolutionized music education and analysis, offering new frameworks for teaching, understanding, and composing music. Her interdisciplinary work continues to drive innovation in music technology, AI, and education, making her a leader in the field of musicology and technology integration.

Future Research

Dr. Anna Shvets' future research will focus on the development of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) for enhancing human-computer interaction (HCI) patterns, utilizing spiking neural networks (SNNs) and immersive virtual reality (VR) environments. By integrating BCIs with SNNs, this research aims to enable real-time, efficient, and energy-conscious interactions between the human brain and digital systems, making strides toward more intuitive and adaptive user experiences.

At the core of this work is the exploration of SNNs, known for their low power consumption and biological inspiration, which will drive more efficient processing in the BCI systems. These networks will enable the direct mapping of neural activity to complex tasks within VR environments, enhancing user engagement by leveraging real-time feedback loops between brain signals and immersive content.

In collaboration with her ongoing research in generative AI and VR, Dr. Shvets plans to explore how these advanced neural models can not only facilitate more natural HCI patterns but also contribute to interactive and dynamic music and visual experiences. This research will potentially revolutionize fields such as interactive media, cognitive rehabilitation, and immersive education by creating more responsive and adaptive virtual environments tailored to individual users' brain activity.

By combining BCIs with her existing expertise in VR and AI-driven music technologies, Dr. Shvets aims to develop applications where users can control immersive environments through brain signals. These applications will enhance the accessibility of VR technologies, open new possibilities for creative expression, and create novel educational tools that adapt to individual cognitive states.

This future research will also address critical challenges such as reducing latency in BCI systems, improving accuracy in interpreting neural data, and ensuring ethical considerations regarding data privacy and bias in AI-driven models. By building on her experience with sustainable AI models, Dr. Shvets' research will further explore ecologically responsible approaches to the development of cutting-edge BCIs, ensuring they are energy-efficient and scalable for real-world applications.
