Research on Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Teaching Methods in Chinese Classical Dance Movement Training

Abstract Taking movement training in the teaching of classical Chinese dance as an entry point, combined with the application of digital technology, improves and enriches the existing teaching methods of movement training of classical Chinese dance. Based on the Kinect skeleton data acquisition technology, the study pre-processes the collected data and proposes a dance movement data segmentation method based on movement rhythm to segment dance movement segments. The ST-GCN network structure is improved to recognize Chinese classical dance by AAST-GCN, a spatio-temporal graph convolutional network based on adaptive and attention mechanisms. Finally, the DTW algorithm is used to analyze the degree of similarity between the recognized action sequences and the standard action sequences, so as to provide targeted assisted teaching of classical Chinese dance. The results show that the intersection and concurrency ratio of the human dance posture detection method based on deep convolutional learning is always located in [0.5, 1.0], and the system can give training suggestions according to the comparison results, and the trainer can reasonably adjust the movements according to the software prompts, so as to achieve the purpose of assisted training, and then effectively improve the trainer’s dance level. After 12 weeks of AI-assisted training, the dancers obtained more obvious improvement than the control group in both rotational speed and the number of rotations, and the enhancement of these two abilities is precisely the necessary condition for realizing high-quality classical dance turn-like movements.

Development and Innovation of Chinese Classical Dance Teaching Mode in the Background of Internet

Abstract Since the development of Chinese classical dance, its dance technology and dance skills have been maturing for a long time, but the innovation and development of classical dance teaching mode needs to be improved. In this paper, OptiTrack is used to capture the dance movement data of classical dancers, transform the data into three-dimensional coordinates, and extract the features of classical dance data through direction normalization. The Hidden Markov Model obtains the time series information in the features and constructs the correlation model. Using the skeletal model data to get the center of mass of the human body, the convolution-gated recurrent unit network structure is used to improve the accuracy of the classical dance score generation results. Combining the above methods, a new teaching model framework for classical dance is proposed from three aspects and empirically analyzed. The empirical results show that the mean value of each dimension of classical dance teachers’ teaching ability ranges from 3.4562-4.3621, which is an excellent overall performance. In the comparison between students’ classical dance movements and standard movements, there existed higher scores than traditional movements in the two time periods within 20 minutes, which were 30 and 5 points higher than the conventional scores, respectively. The rest of the time was slightly lower than the regular movements, which shows that the innovation effect of classical dance teaching is better, and optimizes students’ classical dance movements to a certain extent.

Study of the Translation Strategies for the Chinese Culture-loaded Words in Chinese Classic Dance under Functional Equivalence Theory

In the past century, Chinese classic dance has entered the spotlight of the international stage. Translation activities and researches on Chinese dance have been increasingly rising. The interdisciplinary study of the translation in Chinese dance field has practical significance and theoretical value for the expansion of the connotation of Chinese translation studies and the development of Chinese dance in the world. One of the features Chinese dance carried is that it involves abundant culture-loaded words. As a consequence, under the direction of functional equivalence theory proposed by Eugene Nida, this study is focused on the analysis of Chinese classic dance terminologies and cultural-loaded words, and the translation strategies of them. Afterwards, the study discovers that, first and foremost, when utilizing the functional equivalence theory, the target texts quality is better; second, translators will use several translation techniques for various categories of cultural-loaded terms in Chinese classical dance; third, several typical approaches that are used in this study with cultural connotations from Chinese classical dance are as follows: literal translation, free translation, annotation and substitution, among which literal translation and annotation are the most popular.

TEACHING THE SHENYUN DANCE TECHNIQUE: A STUDY ON UNIVERSITI SAINS MALAYSIA STUDENTS

Chinese dance is a culturally rich and popular art form worldwide. However, its teaching needs to be improved in Malaysia, despite its multicultural population and significant Chinese community. In the last century, ShenYun technique emerged as one of the primary schools that have been used in teaching Chinese classical dance to ensure its form and type standardization. Nevertheless, there have yet to be any attempts to teach Chinese classical dance overseas using the original teaching materials of the ShenYun technique. This paper focuses on measuring the effectiveness of teaching ShenYun dance technique to international students. 22 students from Universiti Sains Malaysia and various cultural backgrounds were selected to learn the ShenYun dance technique for 12 sessions. The evaluation of the student's learning outcomes involved multiple methods. Post-class questionnaires were given to students after every class, and a final questionnaire was given at the end of the course. Local dance experts assessed the students' progress by observing a live performance, while Chinese dance experts evaluated a video recording of the final performance. The data obtained from students were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation to determine the participants' understanding level. At the same time, the data collected from experts was used to evaluate the learning outcomes. According to the study's findings, the 12 sessions of ShenYun dance technique is an effective instructional resource for international students.
