Clustering of Musical Sounds using
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper describes a hierarchical clustering of musical signals based on information derived from spectral and bispectral acoustic distortion measures. This clustering reveals the ultra metric structure that exists in the set of sounds, with a clear interpretation of the distances between the sounds as the statistical divergence between the sound models. Spectral, bispectral and combined clustering results are presented.

Language, Music, and Brain
Introduction: Over the last centuries, scientists have been trying to figure out how the brain is learning the language. By 1980, the study of brain-language relationships was based on the study of human brain damage. But since 1980, neuroscience methods have greatly improved. There is controversy about where music, composition, or the perception of language and music are in the brain, or wheth...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Achievement of the Philosophical Sense of “Extension” in Music, with Interpretaion of Ibn-e Sina’s Explanation an Extension
This research can be considered as one of the studies that seek to explore, in an argumentative way, subtle and solid philosophical concepts in the field of art. The paper provides an analysis of the concept of “extension” in music as one of the most thought-provoking philosophical concepts.

In this paper we have extracted the notes of Iranian scale from the traditional music played by the great musician Shahnazi on the TAR. Then, by analyzing the spectrum of the notes and by using our special averaging we have found the pitch attributed to the components’ frequency and found the interval between the notes. The results are in comple agreement with Pythagorean scale. Pitch is a su...
متن کاملHierarchical temporal structure in music, speech and animal vocalizations: jazz is like a conversation, humpbacks sing like hermit thrushes.
Humans talk, sing and play music. Some species of birds and whales sing long and complex songs. All these behaviours and sounds exhibit hierarchical structure-syllables and notes are positioned within words and musical phrases, words and motives in sentences and musical phrases, and so on. We developed a new method to measure and compare hierarchical temporal structures in speech, song and musi...
متن کاملTimbre Classification Of A Single Musical Instrument
In order to map the spectral characteristics of the large variety of sounds a musical instrument may produce, different notes were performed and sampled in several intensity levels across the whole extension of a clarinet. Amplitude and frequency time-varying curves of partials were measured by Discrete Fourier Transform. A limited set of orthogonal spectral bases was derived by Principal Compo...
