In this paper, a novel approach for the computation of a pitch salience function is presented. The aim of a pitch (considered here as synonym for fundamental frequency) salience function is to estimate the relevance of the most salient musical pitches that are present in a certain audio excerpt. Such a function is used in numerous Music Information Retrieval (MIR) tasks such as pitch, multiple-...

Rapid acceleration and deceleration are vital for survival in many predator and prey animals and are important attributes of animal and human athletes. Adaptations for acceleration and deceleration are therefore likely to experience strong selective pressures--both natural and artificial. Here, we explore the mechanical and physiological constraints to acceleration. We examined two elite athlet...

For applications such as tone modeling and automatic tone recognition, smoothed F0 (pitch) all-voiced pitch tracks are desirable. Three pitch trackers that have been shown to give good accuracy for pitch tracking are YAAPT, YIN, and PRAAT. On tests with English and Japanese databases, for which ground truth pitch tracks are available by other means, we show that YAAPT has lower errors than YIN ...

0 ne of the more baffling aspects of tinnitus has always been the lack of a clear relation between the patient's apparent distress and such perceived measures of tinnitus character and strength as pitch and loudness. Patients whose tinnitus pitch and loudness judgments are similar often differ widely in the extent to which the tinnitus bothers them in daily living . In this issue of JAAA, autho...

Historically, the brainstem has been neglected as a part of the brain involved in language processing. We review recent evidence of language-dependent effects in pitch processing based on comparisons of native vs. nonnative speakers of a tonal language from electrophysiological recordings in the auditory brainstem. We argue that there is enhancing of linguistically-relevant pitch dimensions or ...
