Výzkum se zaměřuje na hledání nových účinných rehabilitačních strategií pro pacienty s Alzheimerovou chorobou, které se opírají o empiricky potvrzené působení hudebních podnětů. Tyto strategie jsou inspirovány studiemi nových rehabilitačních metod navržených Nicholasem Stergiou (Biomechanics Lab, University of Nebraska in Omaha), jež jsou založeny na signálech, které cíleně obsahují uměle zakomponovanou fyziologickou komplexitu (např. typu růžového šumu). Jde o to, že fyziologické signály zdravého organismu vykazují právě jistou míru této komplexity. První fáze výzkumu zahrnuje tvorbu softwaru ve formátu MIDI, který umožňuje tuto komplexitu zabudovat do nahrávek klasické hudby, a pilotování takto upravených nahrávek na "zdravé" populaci. Následující fáze bude zkoumat vliv těchto hudebních podnětů na pacienty s Alzheimerovou chorobou (spolupráce s neurology v diagnostice).

Experimental Design and Technical Tools for the Research of Musical Stimuli with Artificially Implemented Complexity Used in the Rehabilitation of Alzheimer's Disease Patients
This study focuses on identifying new and effective rehabilitation strategies for patients with Alzheimer's disease, which relies on the empirically confirmed effect of musical stimuli. The strategies were inspired by studies of new rehabilitation methods designed by Nicholas Stergiou (Biomechanics Lab, University of Nebraska in Omaha), based on signals that contain artificially incorporated physiological complexity (e.g. pink noise). The physiological signals of a healthy organism contain a certain degree of such complexity. The first phase of the research includes the creation of software in a MIDI format, which enabled the implementation of this complexity into recordings of classical music, and its piloting on a "healthy" population. The following phase will examine the effects of these recordings on patients with AD (in collaboration with neurologists in diagnostics).
Keywords: ADHD, Alzheimer's disease, autism, new rehabilitation strategies, physiological complexity of pink noise, software MIDI
