Application of Artificial Neural Network in College-Level Music Teaching Quality Evaluation

Abstract

Art is a very practical activity, especially music art. Quality music education at colleges and universities is vital for the ideological and moral schooling of students. Owing to the rapid expansion of music education at graduate level, the building of therapeutic evaluation of music instruction is critical. In fact, most of the music instruction in colleges and universities has not built a scientific and appropriate evaluation system based on the actual teaching quality of the classroom. This work combines the emerging neural network (NN) technology with standard method of music teaching evaluation and proposes a novel method—Music Teaching Quality Evaluation Network (MTQEN). To effectively improve performance of the model, the method uses a one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) being optimized from three aspects: expanding the receptive field, reducing training parameters, and enhancing operationality. Instead of the traditional convolution layer, the dilated convolution layer is utilized to increase scope of local receptive field and to improve the feature extraction efficacy. To improve training rate and to eliminate dependency on batch size, the filter response normalization (FRN) is used. Moreover, global pooling is used to reduce the requisite training parameters and to improve the training efficiency. Results of the evaluation show that performance of MTQEN in term accuracy (95.6%) and recall (93.3%) is better than the other contemporary models. The method proposed has great significance in pedagogy of music and arts, whereas the network designed may be enhanced to effectively evaluate teaching in related domains as well.

Music Teaching Mode of Colleges and Universities Based On Hierarchically Gated Recurrent Neural Network (HGRNN) and Lyrebird Optimization Algorithm (LOA)

“…Shi [20] has developed a cutting-edge neural network (NN) technology using a conventional approach to evaluate music teaching. They propose a unique method called MTQEN.…”

Improving the Efficiency of College Art Teaching Based on Neural Networks

“…Teaching reform is the main way to improve the quality of teaching, and the reform of art courses is mainly reflected in the learning style, time, place, content, homework, examination, and assessment (Er et al, 2016). In terms of course learning methods, it primarily adopts blended learning that combines internet learning with traditional teaching, using internet teaching resources and classroom teachers to complete classes, questions, interactions, assignments, exams, and other content (Shi, 2022). In terms of the learning time and location of the course, the internet learning time and location can achieve relative freedom (Kongsakun & Fung, 2012).…”

Teaching Quality Evaluation Method of Higher Education based on Particle Swarm Optimization Neural Network

“…In recent years, colleges and universities have made great progress in professional setting, personnel training and social service [1][2][3] . National education authorities at all levels have always taken improving the teaching quality of higher education as the starting point, with the goal of cultivating high-level specialized talents, and constantly improving the international competitiveness of Chinese colleges and universities [4][5][6] . At present, countries around the world are generally concerned about the issue of education and teaching quality assurance system and teaching quality evaluation in institutions of higher learning [7][8] .…”
