Live Vocal Extraction from K-pop Performances
K-pop's global success is fueled by its dynamic performances and vibrant fan engagement. Inspired by K-pop fan culture, we propose a methodology for automatically extracting live vocals from performances. We use a combination of source separation, cross-correlation, and amplitude scaling to automatically remove pre-recorded vocals and instrumentals from a live performance. Our preliminary work introduces the task of live vocal separation and provides a foundation for future research in this top…

Preserving Russek's "Summermood" Using Reality Check and a DeltaLab DL-4 Approximation
As a contribution towards ongoing efforts to maintain electroacoustic compositions for live performance, we present a collection of Pure Data patches to preserve and perform Antonio Russek's piece "Summermood" for bass flute and live electronics. The piece, originally written for the DeltaLab DL-4 delay rack unit, contains score markings specific to the DL-4. Here, we approximate the sound and unique functionality of the DL-4 in Pure Data, then refine our implementation to better match the unit…

Nudging the Somas: Exploring How Live-Configurable Mixed Reality Objects Shape Open-Ended Intercorporeal Movements
Mixed Reality (MR) experiences increasingly explore how virtual elements can shape physical behaviour, yet how MR objects guide group movement remains underexplored. We address this gap by examining how virtual objects can nudge collective, co-located movement without relying on explicit instructions or choreography. We developed GravField, a co-located MR performance system where an "object jockey" live-configures virtual objects, springs, ropes, magnets, with real-time, parameterised "digital…

Lightweight Auto-bidding based on Traffic Prediction in Live Advertising
Internet live streaming is widely used in online entertainment and e-commerce, where live advertising is an important marketing tool for anchors. An advertising campaign hopes to maximize the effect (such as conversions) under constraints (such as budget and cost-per-click). The mainstream control of campaigns is auto-bidding, where the performance depends on the decision of the bidding algorithm in each request. The most widely used auto-bidding algorithms include Proportional-Integral-Derivat…

MienCap: Realtime Performance-Based Facial Animation with Live Mood Dynamics
Our purpose is to improve performance-based animation which can drive believable 3D stylized characters that are truly perceptual. By combining traditional blendshape animation techniques with multiple machine learning models, we present both non-real time and real time solutions which drive character expressions in a geometrically consistent and perceptually valid way. For the non-real time system, we propose a 3D emotion transfer network makes use of a 2D human image to generate a stylized 3D…

What's Behind the Magic? Audiences Seek Artistic Value in Generative AI's Contributions to a Live Dance Performance
With the development of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools to create art, stakeholders cannot come to an agreement on the value of these works. In this study we uncovered the mixed opinions surrounding art made by AI. We developed two versions of a dance performance augmented by technology either with or without GenAI. For each version we informed audiences of the performance's development either before or after a survey on their perceptions of the performance. There were thirty-n…

Optical discrimination of live single cancer cells using reflection-based nanohole array sensor
In this research, a reflection-based nanohole array sensor system is presented for discriminating between migration-competent cancer cells that maintain the integrity of the actin cortex and those cells lacking the actin cortex and thus unable to migrate. Unlike previous transmission-based approaches, this configuration allows for more practical integration into in situ diagnostic tools. For the first time, the system performance is analyzed by studying the spectral features of the reflected li…

Leveraging Scene Context with Dual Networks for Sequential User Behavior Modeling
Modeling sequential user behaviors for future behavior prediction is crucial in improving user's information retrieval experience. Recent studies highlight the importance of incorporating contextual information to enhance prediction performance. One crucial but usually neglected contextual information is the scene feature which we define as sub-interfaces within an app, created by developers to provide specific functionalities, such as ``text2product search" and ``live" modules in e-commence ap…
