چکیده

Traditional methods for partial envelope analysis run into difficulties in the presence of tremolo and noise. This paper investigates an alternative method of analysis that uses a variety of non-linear warping techniques to match a synthetic envelope template to the partial envelope. Generation of suitable templates is discussed and the variety of implementations for the warping algorithm is examined. A complete procedure for matching the template is then explained and justified. Application of this procedure to partial envelope analysis of flute sounds is described and the results presented demonstrate the best choice of warping implementation. This technique allows for better envelope segmentation thus enabling improved modelling in representations such as the Timbre Model [1].

Generalized Warping In Flexural-Torsional Buckling Analysis of Composite Beams

The finite element method is employed for the flexural-torsional linear buckling analysis of beams of arbitrarily shaped composite cross-section taking into account generalized warping (shear lag effects due to both flexure and torsion). The contacting materials, that constitute the composite cross section, may include a finite number of holes. A compressive axial load is applied to the beam. The...

Image Restoration Using A PDE-Based Approach

 Image restoration is an essential preprocessing step for many image analysis applications. In any image restoration techniques, keeping structure of the image unchanged is very important. Such structure in an image often corresponds to the region discontinuities and edges. The techniques based on partial differential equations, such as the heat equations, are receiving considerable attention i...

Frequency warped modeling of vowel spectra: Dependence on vowel quality

The compact representation of harmonic amplitudes in the sinusoidal coding of speech is an important problem in low bit rate speech compression. A widely used method to achieve this is by the all-pole modeling of the spectral envelope. Often a perceptually warped frequency scale is applied in the all-pole modeling to improve perceived accuracy at low model orders. In this work, an attempt is ma...

Controlling perceived degradation in spectrum envelope modeling via predistortion

The compact representation of the discrete amplitude spectrum of voiced speech by an all-pole model of the spectral envelope is considered. Based on the properties of the all-pole modeling error, the use of spectrum predistortion for improving the perceptual fit at low model orders is motivated. Warping of the frequency scale before modeling of the spectral envelope of narrowband voiced sounds ...
