Transcription of polyphonic signals using fast filter bank
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a novel approach to the transcription of polyphonic signals is investigated. The method makes use of top-down analysis and bottom-up reconstruction of the time-frequency contents of the signals. Time-frequency contents of the signals are obtained using a bank of narrow band filters with very sharp transition band. The filters are designed using the Frequency Response Masking technique. The high selectivity of the filters has enhanced the top-down analysis and increased the accuracy of identification over the simple frequency transform techniques. The method was tested with musical notes generated from an acoustic piano. Results show that for single notes and chords up to four notes, perfect identification can be achieved.

A Study of Tempo Tracking Algorithms from Polyphonic Music Signals
In this paper, algorithms for tempo tracking from polyphonic music signals are introduced. These new methods are based on the association of a filter bank with robust pitch detection algorithms such as the spectral sum or spectral product. These algorithms are further improved by using an onset detector in each band. These algorithms are then compared to two of the most reliable methods of the ...

متن کاملFrequency Estimation from Waveforms Using Multi-Layered Neural Networks
For frequency estimation in noisy speech or music signals, time domain methods based on signal processing techniques such as autocorrelation or average magnitude difference, often do not perform well. As deep neural networks (DNNs) have become feasible, some researchers have attempted with some success to improve the performance of signal processing based methods by learning on autocorrelation,...
متن کاملSimple and Fast Subband De-blocking Technique by Discarding the High Band Signals
In this paper, we propose a simple and fast post-processing deblocking technique to reduce blocking artifacts. The block-based coded image is first decomposed into several subbands. Only the low frequency subband signals are retained and the high frequency subband signals are discarded. The remaining subband signals are then reconstructed to obtain a less blocky image. The ideas are demonstrate...
