Procedureel leren is een ‘intelligent’ leerproces waarbij het brein in de volgorde van zowel de klanken die wij horen als de bewegingen die wij maken, patronen waarneemt, en daardoor in staat is om de muzikale ‘toekomst’ beter te voorspellen en daarop te anticiperen. Wij spreken een muziektaal waarvan …

Vocale improvisatie door zowel musici als niet-musici wijst uit dat impliciete kennis van de muzieksyntax tijdens het zingen wordt aangeleerd. Zonder dat wij expliciet weten hoe de muziek in elkaar steekt, zijn wij in staat om de ‘regels’ van de westerse muziek in de praktijk toe te passen. Deze wijze …

The realization of one’s musical ideas at the keyboard is dependent on the ability to transform sound into movement, a process called audiomotor transformation. Using fMRI, we investigated cerebral activations while classically‐trained improvising and non‐improvising musicians imagined playing along …

Three topics are discussed: audiomotor transformations in music, the aural perception of music, and procedural learning and music syntax. Biologically, the ability to make music and enjoy it is based on the innate capacities for beat induction and relative pitch (recognition of melodic contour). The …

The transformation of music into movement takes place while dancing, singing, and playing an instrument. The human capacity for beat induction facilitates rhythmic movement to the musical beat, a capacity share with only a few animals. While Parkinson patients are limited in their locomotive abilities, …

While improvisation is considered to be an art form, particularly in jazz, but also in eighteenth-century music, it may also be seen as an didactic instrument which can be used to develop implicit knowledge of music syntax. Two types of syntax may be distinguished: finite state grammars and hierarchical …

From the introduction: "There are two variants of fronto-temporal dementia: a behavioral variant (behavioral FTD, bvFTD, Neary et al. (1998)), which causes changes in behavior and personality but leaves syntax, phonology and semantics relatively intact, and a variant that causes impairments in the language …

From the thesis: "Management Summary Cause: Easysize is a small technology company offering a size calculation tool for online shops. The company is successful, but their servers are reaching the top of their capacity. The company wants to overcome this problem before they are getting too big. While …

Tijdens het project is een programma gemaakt waarmee niet-technische gebruikers SQL-Query's kunnen bouwen zonder de syntax te hoeven leren.
