چکیده

A new cepstral function, the cepstrum of the one-sided autocorrelation sequence, is presented and applied to pitch determination of speech signals. It shows a performance in terms of pitch period errors significantly better than those of the usual cepstrum and autocorrelation with center clipping algorithms for both clean and noisy speech, due to its remarkable accuracy at non-stationary segments of speech signals and to its noise reduction capability.

A Pitch Detection Algorithm Based on Windowless Autocorrelation Function and Modified Cepstrum Method in Noisy Environments

This paper proposes a new pitch detection algorithm of speech signals in noisy environment. The performance of the cepstrum method is effected due to the formant effect and the presence of spurious peaks introduced in noisy condition. In our proposed method, we firstly employ windowless autocorrelation function instead of its speech signal for obtaining the cepstrum. The windowless autocorrelat...

Overview of Homophonic Pitch Detection algorithms

In this paper are described the most commonly encountered algorithm for pitch detection. We restrict ourselves exclusively to monophonic sound source. Both frequency and time domain algorithm are explored. The techniques presented here are zero-crossing, autocorrelation function, average magnitude difference function, weighted autocorrelation function, harmonic product spectrum, cepstrum and th...

Smooth Cepstrum Calculation Using Modified Bartlett Hanning Window

Cepstrum is an algorithm for analyzing the speech signals in frequency domain. This is conventional method of fundamental peak picking i.e. fundamental frequency or pitch. For a speech signal it is necessary to identify the fundamental frequency correctly in order to have robust system for speaker identification and verification. Using this approach two algorithms has been proposed using Hammin...

A Simple Spectrum Estimation Technique Based on the Analytic Cepstrum

Several papers have been devoted to the alternative maximum entropy method (MEM2) which uses a finite-length cepstrum modelling to estimate the spectrum from a given set of autocorrelations. In this paper, a simple technique that avoids the computational burden of MEM2 by using the causal part of the autocorrelation instead of the complete two-sided sequence is presented. Its finite-length ceps...

Efficient Pitch Detection Techniques for Interactive Music

Several pitch detection algorithms are examined for use in interactive computer-music performance. We define criteria necessary for successful pitch tracking in real-time and survey four tracking techniques: Harmonic Product Spectrum (HPS), Cepstrum-Biased HPS (CBHPS), Maximum Likelihood (ML), and the Weighted Autocorrelation Function (WACF).
