  1. Jesse English and Sandor Dornbush With help from: Dr. Zary Segall & Chad Eby.

  2. Activity Awareness • Feedback loop between the user and their music. • Use the users physiological state to influence the music selection. • The music influences the users mood and mindset.

  3. Proposed XPod Form Factor

  4. Proposed XPod User Interface

  5. Potential XPod Platform • Nokia 5500 Sport Phone • Embedded Accelerometers • MP3 Player http://europe.nokia.com/A4213113

  6. Experimental XPod • Bodymedia Device • Tablet

  7. Music and Human Activity • Music has a strong connection with human activity. • People like to play music that is appropriate for their current activity. • Music will can affect a persons mental state and physical activity.

  8. Music Selection • Choose the song that the user would most likely like in this state. • Use the user prior behavior to learn their preferences. • Combine a star rating system with body information.

  9. Song Selection Choose a Song Randomly Learning Algorithm Estimate Preference Flip coin weighted by the Estimated preference Tails Heads Play Song

  10. Results

  11. Results • XPod creates a custom context aware playlist. • The addition of state information can improve the accuracy of the learning system. • Prefrence(Song|Time,Activity) ≠ Preference(Song) • Neural Network seems to be best. • Generalizes best • Over trains very quickly • SMO gets the exact. • Does not generalize well.

  12. Network Structure • 289 Input neurons • 1 Output neuron • 1-50 Hidden neurons • 4 is the best

  13. Future Work • Develop a prototype device. • Nokia 5500 Sport • iPaq and Backpaq • Incorporate song metadata • Human Generated, eg Last.fm • Machine Generated • Incorporate other meta information • Location Information • Recent Phone Calls • Weather

  14. Questions?
