Tonal expectations influence pitch perception.
In this study, we investigated the influence of tonal relatedness on pitch perception in melodies. Tonal expectations for target tones were manipulated in melodic contexts while controlling sensory expectations, thus allowing us to assess specifically the influence oftonal expectations on pitch perception. Three experimentsprovided converging evidence that tonal relatedness modulates pitch perc...
متن کاملInfluence of tonal context and timbral variation on perception of pitch.
In this study, spectral timbre's effect on pitch perception is examined in varying contexts. In two experiments, subjects detected pitch deviations of tones differing in brightness in an isolated context in which they compared two tones, in a tone-series context in which they judged whether the last tone of a simple sequence was in or out of tune, and in a melodic context in which they determin...
متن کاملAutomatic pitch contour stylization using a model of tonal perception
A new quantitative model of tonal perception for continuous speech is described. The paper illustrates its ability for automatic stylization of pitch contours, with applications to prosodic analysis and speech synthesis in mind, and evaluates it in a perception experiment. After a discussion of the psychoacoustics of tonal perception and an overview of existing tonal perception models and syste...
متن کاملFamiliar Tonal Context Improves Accuracy of Pitch Interval Perception
A fundamental feature of everyday music perception is sensitivity to familiar tonal structures such as musical keys. Many studies have suggested that a tonal context can enhance the perception and representation of pitch. Most of these studies have measured response time, which may reflect expectancy as opposed to perceptual accuracy. We instead used a performance-based measure, comparing parti...
متن کاملPitch Contour Stylization Using a Tonal Perception Model
An algorithm for automatic pitch contour stylization is described. It is based on a model of tonal perception, such that the resulting stylization is controlled by two perceptual thresholds. The output is the sequence of audible pitch events aligned with the syllables in the utterance. INTRODUCTION Stylization is a manual or automatic procedure that modifies the measured F0 contour of an uttera...
