Musical Instrument Classification Using Neural Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a system for automatic classification of musical instrument sounds is introduced. As features mel-frequency cepstral coefficients and as classifiers probabilistic neural networks are used. The experimental dataset included 4548 solo tones from 19 instruments of MIS database (The University of Iowa Musical Instrument Samples). Experiments for different system structures (hierarchical and direct classification) were carried out and compared. The best performance in direct classification was 92% for individual instruments and 97% for families; and 89% for individual instruments when hierarchical approach is used. Key-Words: Musical instrument classification, probabilistic neural networks, PNN

Classification of Iranian traditional musical modes (DASTGÄH) with artificial neural network
The concept of Iranian traditional musical modes, namely DASTGÄH, is the basis for the traditional music system. The concept introduces seven DASTGÄHs. It is not an easy process to distinguish these modes and such practice is commonly performed by an experienced person in this field. Apparently, applying artificial intelligence to do such classification requires a combination of the basic infor...

This paper outlines a RBF/EBF neural network approach for automatic musical instrument classification using salient feature extraction techniques with a combination of supervised and unsupervised learning schemes. 829 monophonic sound examples (86% Siedlaczek Library [2], 14% other sources) from the string, brass, and woodwind families with a variety of performance techniques, dynamics, and pit...
متن کاملNeural Networks for Simultaneous Classification and Parameter Estimation in Musical Instrument Control
In this report we present our tools for prototyping adaptive user interfaces in the context of real—time musical instrument control. Characteristic of most human communication is the simultaneous use of classified events and estimated parameters. We have integrated a neural network object into the MAX language to explore adaptive user interfaces that considers these facets of human communicatio...
متن کاملRepresenting Musical Instrument Sounds for their Automatic Classification
A study on the automatic classification of musical instrument sounds is presented. A database of musical instrument sounds parameters was built for this purpose, which consists of musical instrument recordings and their parametric representation. The parameterization process was conceived and performed in order to find significant musical instrument sound features and to remove redundancy from ...
متن کاملMusical Instrument Recognition and Classification Using Time Encoded Signal Processing and Fast Artificial Neural Networks
Traditionally, musical instrument recognition is mainly based on frequency domain analysis (sinusoidal analysis, cepstral coefficients) and shape analysis to extract a set of various features. Instruments are usually classified using k-NN classifiers, HMM, Kohonen SOM and Neural Networks. In this work, we describe a system for the recognition of musical instruments from isolated notes. We are i...
