A Variable Resolution transform for music analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a novel music representation using a Variable Resolution Transform (VRT) which is particularly well adapted for music audio analysis. The VRT is inspired by continuous wavelet transform and it applies different wavelet function at different scale. This method enables a good flexibility of the transform in order to follow log scale of musical note frequencies and at the same time to maintain good time and frequency resolution. As an example of application of this novel VRT, a multiple f0 detection algorithm is presented and evaluated showing convincing results. Furthermore, a direct comparison with the FFT applied to the same algorithm is also provided.

متن کاملAn Efficient Multi-Resolution Spectral Transform for Music Analysis
In this paper we focus on multi-resolution spectral analysis algorithms for music signals based on the FFT. Two previously devised efficient algorithms (efficient constantQ transform [1] and multiresolution FFT [2]) are reviewed and compared with a new proposal based on the IIR filtering of the FFT. Apart from its simplicity, the proposed method shows to be a good compromise between design flex...
