Tuning the Brain for Music About the Authors

Olivier Lartillot, Petri Toiviainen and Tuomas Eerola are members of the Finnish Centre of Excellence in Interdisciplinary Music Research, University of Jyvskyl, Finland. The development of the toolbox has benetted from productive collaborations with: partners of the Brain Tuning project (Marco Fabiani, Jose Fornari, Anders Friberg, Roberto Bresin, ...), colleagues from the Centre of Excellence (Pasi Saari, Vinoo Alluri, Rafael Ferrer, Marc Thompson, ...), students of the MMT master program, external collaborators: Jakob Abeer (Fraunhofer IDMT), Thomas Wosch and associates (MEM, FHWS), Cyril Laurier and Emilia Gomez, (MTG-UPF), MIRtoolbox has been developed within the context of a Europeen Project called Tuning the Brain for Music, funded by the NEST (New and Emerging Science and Technology) program of the European Commission. The project, coordinated by Mari Tervaniemi from the Cognitive Brain Research Unit of the Department of Helsinki, is dedicated to the study of music and emotion, with collaboration between neurosciences, cognitive psychology and computer science. One particular question, studied in collaboration between the Music Cognition Team of the University of Jyvskyl and the Music Acoustics Group of the KTH in Stockholm, is related to the investigation of the relation between musical features and music-induced emotion. In particular, we would like to know which musical parameters can be related to the induction of particular emotion when playing or listening to music. For that purpose, we needed to extract a large set of musical features from large audio data-bases, in order to perform in a second step a statistical mapping between the diverse musical parameters and musical materials with listeners emotional ratings. This requires in particular a manage4

ment of the interdependencies between the diverse features in order to avoid having to recompute the same operations again and again and also a control of the memory costs while analyzing the databases.

Music, Mind, Technology

The Music Cognition Team has recently introduced a new master degree, called Music Mind Technology (MMT). The Music Information Retrieval course, taught by Petri Toiviainen, Vinoo Alluri and myself, offers an overview of computer-based research for music analysis and in particular musical feature extraction. For the hands-on sessions, we wanted the student to be able to try by themselves the different computational approaches using Matlab. As many of them did not have much background in this programming environment, we decided to design a computational environment for musical feature extraction aimed at both expert and non-expert of Matlab.

Reliances

Free softwares included in MIRtoolbox distribution

MIRtoolbox includes in its distribution several other freely available toolboxes, that are used for specic computations. The Auditory Toolbox, by Malcolm Slaney (1998), is used for Mel-band spectrum and MFCC computations, and Gammatone lterbank decomposition.

Required Commercial Products

MIRtoolbox requires the Matlab environment, version 7, and does not work very well with previous versions of Matlab. This is due in particular to the fact MIRtoolbox relies on multidimensional arrays and multiple outputs, which seem to be features introduced by version 7. MIRtoolbox also requires that the Signal Processing Toolbox, one of the optional sub-packages of Matlab, be properly installed. But actually, a certain number of operators can adapt to the absence of this toolbox, and can produce more or less reliable results. But for serious use of MIRtoolbox, we strongly recommand a proper installation of the Signal Processing Toolbox.

The Netlab toolbox, by Ian Nabney (2002), where the routines for Gaussian Mixture Modeling (GMM) is used for classication (mirclassify). Finally, the SOM toolbox, by Esa Alhoniemi and colleagues (Vesanto, 1999), where only a routine for clustering based on k-means method is used, in the mircluster function.

As such, it can integrate codes from other GPL 2.0 projects, as long as their origins are explicitly stated. codes from the Music Analysis Toolbox by Elias Pampalk (2004), related to the computation of Terhardt outer ear modeling, Bark band decomposition and masking effects.

Installation
To install MIRtoolbox in your Matlab environment, move the main MIRtoolbox folder to the location of your choice in your computer (for instance, in your Matlab "toolbox" folder, if you have administrative rights to modify it). Then open the Set Path environment available in Matlab File menu, click on Add with Subfolders..., browse into the le hierarchy and select the main MIRtoolbox folder, then click Open. You can then Save and Close the Set Path environment.

MP3 reader for Mac OS X 64-bits platform

If you are running Matlab on a Mac OS X 10.6 or beyond and with Matlab release 2009 or beyond, the binaries used for reading MP3 les (mpg123 and mp3info) needs to be in 64-bits format (with the mexmaci64 le extension). Unfortunately, it seems that the mpg123.mexmaci64 and mp3info.mexmaci64 executable we provided in the MIRtoolbox distribution cannot be used directly on other computers, so you need to install those binaries by yourselves on each separate computer by doing the following: Install Apples Xcode: If you use Max OS X 10.7, you can download it from free on the Mac App Store. If you use Mac OS X 10.6, you need to be (freely) registered as an Apple Developer. We suggest to download Xcode 3.2.6, as it is the latest free version available. Install MacPorts. Check that your MacPorts is up-to-date by executing in the Terminal: sudo port -v selfupdate

Update
If you replace an older version of MIRtoolbox with a new one, please update your Matlab path using the following command: rehash toolboxcache Update also the class structure of the toolbox, either by restarting Matlab, or by typing the following command: clear classes

iBooks Author

(You need to authenticate as an administrative user.) Install mpg123 and mp3info via MacPorts by executing in the Terminal: sudo port install mpg123 sudo port install mp3info (Each of these two installations might take some time.) Once both installations are completed, you should obtain among others two Unix executable les called mpg123 and mp3info, probably located at the address /opt/local/bin. Create a copy of these les that you rename mpg123.mexmaci64 and mp3info.mexmaci64, and place these two renamed les in a folder whose path is included in Matlab. You can for instance place them in your MIRtoolbox folder, which already contains Unix executable mpg123.mexmaci and mp3info.mexmaci, which correspond to the 32-bit platform. If there already exists les called mpg123.mexmaci64 and mp3info.mexmaci64, you can replace those previous les with the new ones you compiled yourself.

Interface

Operations and options to be applied are indicated by particular keywords, expressed as arguments of the functions. For instance, the waveform can be centered using the Center keyword: miraudio(mysong, Center) which is equivalent to any of these parameters:

Basic Syntax
All functions are preceded by the mir- prex in order to avoid conicts with other Matlab functions. Each function is related to a particular data type: for instance, miraudio is related to the loading, transformation and display of audio waveform. An audio le, lets say a WAV le of name mysong.wav, can be loaded simply by writing the command: miraudio(mysong.wav) N.B. Throughout this guide, as the example above shows, opening () and closing () quotes are distinguished. Please note however that in MATLAB, on the contrary, both opening and closing quotes should be written using the standard neutral form: '. The extension of the le can be omitted: miraudio(mysong)

miraudio(mysong, Center, yes) miraudio(mysong, Center, on) miraudio(mysong, Center, 1) whereas the opposite set of parameters miraudio(mysong, Center, no) miraudio(mysong, Center, off) miraudio(mysong, Center, 0) are not necessary in the case of the Center options as it is toggle off by default in miraudio. It should be noted also that keywords are not case-sensitive: miraudio(mysong, center, YES)

13

iBooks Author

Other options accept numerical particular parameters. For instance, an audio waveform can be resampled to any sampling rate, which is indicated by a value in Hertz (Hz.) indicated after the Sampling keyword. For instance, to resample at 11025 Hz., we just write: miraudio(mysong, Sampling, 11025) Finally the different options can be combined in one single command line: miraudio(mysong, Center, Sampling, 11025)

Batch analysis
Folder of les can be analyzed in exactly the same way. For that, the le name, which was initially the rst argument of the functions, can be replaced by the Folder keyword. For instance, a folder of audio les can be loaded like this: miraudio(Folder) Audio les in WAV, AIFF, AU and MP3 formats are taken into consideration, the other les are simply ignored:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
Automatic analysis of a batch of audio les using the Folder keyword

14

iBooks Author

Subfolders can be analyzed recursively as well, using the Folders keyword: miraudio(Folders) Alternatively, the list of audio les (with their respective path) can be stored in successive lines of a TXT le, whose name (and path) can be given as argument to miraudio: miraudio(mylenames.txt)

miraudio(mysong); The actual output is stored in an object, hidden by default to the users, which contains all the information related to the data, such as the numerical values of the waveform amplitudes, the temporal dates of the bins, the sampling rate, the name of the le, etc. In this way we avoid the traditional interface in Matlab, not quite user-friendly in this respect, were results are directly displayed in the Command Window by a huge list of numbers. It is not possible to display MIRtoolbox results in the Matlab Variable Editor. If you try visualizing a MIRtoolbox variable listed in your Workspace window, for instance the audio waveform in the previous example, you get the following text in the Variable Editor: val is the Audio waveform related to le mysong.wav, of sampling rate 44100 Hz. To display its content in a gure, evaluate this variable directly in the Command Window.

Output format and graphical display

After entering one command, such as miraudio(mysong) the computation is carried out, and when it is completed, a text is written in the Command Window: ans is the Audio waveform related to le mysong.wav, of sampling rate 44100 Hz. Its content is displayed in Figure 1. And a graphical representation of the result is displayed in a gure, as in Figure -.-. The display of the gures and the messages can be avoided, if necessary, by adding a semi-colon at the end of the command:

pling rate 22050 Hz. Its content is displayed in Figure 2. ans(3) is the Audio waveform related to le song3.au, of sampling rate 11025 Hz. Its content is displayed in Figure 3. and so on. And the actual output is stored in one single object, that contains the information related to all the different audio les.

Threading of data ow
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

The result of one operation can be used for subsequent operations. For that purpose, it is better to store each result in a variable. For instance, the audio waveform(s) can be stored in one variable a: a = miraudio(mysong); Then the spectrum, for instance, related to the audio waveform can be computed by calling the function mirspectrum using simply the a variable as argument: s = mirspectrum(a)

the results related to each audio le is displayed in a different gure, and messages such as the following ones are displayed in the Command Window: ans(1) is the Audio waveform related to le song1.wav, of sampling rate 44100 Hz. Its content is displayed in Figure 1.

16

iBooks Author

In this way, all the information necessary for the computation of the spectrum can be retrieved from the hidden object, associated to the variable a, that contains the complex encapsulated data. Alternatively, the spectrum can be directly computed from a given audio le by indicating the le name as argument of the mirspectrum function: s = mirspectrum(mysong) This second syntax, more compact, is generally recommended, because it avoids the decomposition of the computation in several steps (a, then s, etc.), which might cause signicant problems for long audio les or for folder of les. We will see in section 5.3 how to devise more subtle datacharts that take into account memory management problems in a more efcient way.

a = miraudio(a, Center); which could more efciently be written in one single line: a = miraudio(mysong, Center);

Numerical data recuperation

The numerical data encapsulated in the output objects can be recuperated if necessary. In particular, the main numerical data (such as the amplitudes of the audio waveform) are obtained using the mirgetdata command: mirgetdata(a) the other related informations are obtained using the generic get method. For instance, the sampling rate of the waveform a is obtained using the command: get(a, Sampling) More detailed description of these functions will be described in Chapter 13, dedicated to advance uses of MIRtoolbox.

Successive operations on one same data format

When some data has been computed on a given format, lets say an audio waveform using the miraudio function: a = miraudio(mysong); it is possible to apply options related to that format in successive step. For instance, we can center the audio waveform in a second step:

Basic Operators

MIRtoolbox basic operators concern the management of audio waveforms (miraudio, mirsave), framebased analysis (mirframe, mirux), periodicity estimation (mirautocor, mirspectrum, mircepstrum), operations related more or less to auditory modeling (mirenvelope, mirlterbank), peak picking (mirpeaks) and sonication of the results (mirplay).

Accepted input formats

le name: The accepted le formats are WAV, MP3, AIFF and AU formats, as the loading operations are based on the Matlab wavread and auread functions, on Dan Ellis mp3read and on Kenneth Eatons aiffread. miraudio object: for further transformations.

Audio Waveform As explained previously, the miraudio operator basically loads audio les, displays and performs operations on the waveform.

Matlab array: It is possible to import an audio waveform encoded into a Matlab column vector, by using the following syntax: miraudio(v, sr) where v is a column vector and sr is the sampling rate of the signal, in Hz. The default value for sr is 44100 Hz.

Transformation options
miraudio(..., Mono, 0) does not perform the default summing of channels into one single mono track, but instead stores each channel of the initial sound le separately. miraudio(..., Center) centers the waveform. miraudio(..., Sampling, r) resamples at sampling rate r (in Hz). It uses the resample function from Signal Processing Toolbox.
20

iBooks Author

 miraudio(..., Normal) normalizes with respect to RMS energy (cf. mirrms). miraudio(..., Frame, w, wu, h, hu) decomposes into frames. Cf. mirframe for an explanation of the arguments (units can be omitted here as well). Default parameters: same as in mirframe, i.e., 50 ms and half-overlapping.

Alternative keyword: Excerpt. miraudio(..., Trim) trims the pseudo-silence beginning and end off the audio le. miraudio(..., TrimThreshold, t) species the trimming threshold t. Silent frames are frames with RMS energy below t times the medium RMS of the whole audio le. Default value: t = 0.06. Instead of 'Trim, 'TrimStart only trims the beginning of the audio le, whereas 'TrimEnd only trims the end. miraudio(..., Channel, c) or miraudio(.., Channels, c) selects the channels indicated by the (array of) integer(s) c.

Extraction options
miraudio(..., Extract, t1, t2, u,f) extracts the signal between the dates t1 and t2, expressed in the unit u. Possible units u = s (seconds, by default) or u = sp (sample index, starting from 1). The additional optional argument f indicates the referential origin of the temporal positions. Possible values for f: 'Start (by default), 'Middle (of the sequence), 'End of the sequence. When using 'Middle or 'End, negative values for t1 or t2 indicate values before the middle or the end of the audio sequence. For instance: miraudio(..., Extract, -1, +1, Middle) extracts one second before and after the middle of the audio le.

Labeling option
miraudio(..., Label, lb) labels the audio signals following the name of their respective audio les. lb is one number, or an array of numbers, and the audio signals are labelled using the substring of their respective le name of index lb. If lb =0, the audio signal(s) are labelled using the whole le name. miraudio(Folder, Label, lb) lb = 6 lb = [5 6] lb = {good, bad} song1g.wav song2g.wav song3b.au g 1g good g 2g bad b 3b good
21

iBooks Author

The labeling is used for classication purposes (cf. mirclassify and mirexport).

Centered: whether the waveform has been centered (1) or not (0), NBits: the number of bits used to code each sample, Label: the label associated to each audio le.

Summation
Audio signals can be superposed using the basic Matlab summation operators (+). For instance lets say we have two sequences: a1= miraudio(melody.wav); a2= miraudio(accompaniment.wav); Then the two sequences can be superposed using the command: a = a1+a2 When superposing miraudio objects, the longest audio is not truncated, but on the contrary the shortest one are prolonged by silence. When audio have different sampling rates, all are converted to the highest one.

mirframe

Flowchart interconnections
mirframe accepts as input any temporal object: an audio waveform miraudio, le name or the Folder keyword, an envelope mirenvelope,

Frame Decomposition The analysis of a whole temporal signal (such as an audio waveform in particular) leads to a global description of the average value of the feature under study. In order to take into account the dynamic evolution of the feature, the analysis has to be carried out on a short-term window that moves chronologically along the temporal signal. Each position of the window is called a frame.

the temporal evolution of a scalar data, such as uxes in particular (mirux), in particular, onset detection curves (mironsets) can be decomposed into frames as well.

Syntax
The frame decomposition can be performed using the mirframe command. The frames can be specied as follows: mirframe(x,..., Length', w, wu): w is the length of the window in seconds (default: .05 seconds); u is the unit, either s (seconds, default unit), or sp (number of samples).
23

iBooks Author

mirframe(x,'..., Hop', h, hu): h is the hop factor, or distance between successive frames (default: half overlapping: each frame begins at the middle of the previous frame) u is the unit, either /1 (ratio with respect to the frame length, default unit) % (ratio as percentage) s (seconds) or sp (number of samples) These arguments can also be written as follows (where units can be omitted): mirframe(x, w, wu, h, hu)

Chaining of operations
Suppose we load an audio le: a = miraudio(mysong) then we decompose into frames f = mirframe(a) then we can perform any computation on each of the successive frame easily. For instance, the computation of the spectrum in each frame (or spectrogram), can be written as: s = mirspectrum(f)

The Frame option

The two rst previous commands can be condensed into one line, using the Frame option. f = miraudio(mysong, Frame) and the three commands can be condensed into one line also using the Frame option. s = mirspectrum(mysong, Frame) The frame specications can be expressed in the following way:

Frame decomposition of an audio waveform, with !ane length l and hop factor h (represented here, fo#owing the default unit, as a ratio with respect to the !ame length).

mirspectrum(..., Frame, l, s, h, /1)

24

iBooks Author

This Frame option is available to most operators. Each operator uses specic default values for the Frame parameters. Each operator can perform the frame decomposition where it is most suitable. For instance, as can be seen in mironsets feature map, the Frame option related to the mironsets operator will lead to a frame decomposition after the actual computation of the onset detection curve (produced by mironsets).

Accessible Output
cf. 5.2 for an explanation of the use of the get method. Specic elds: FramePos: the starting and ending temporal positions of each successive frame, stored in the same way as for Data (cf. 5.2), Framed: whether the data has been decomposed into frames or not.

mirlterbank

Filterbank Decomposition It is often interesting to decompose the audio signal into a series of audio signals of different frequency register, from low frequency channels to high frequency channels. This enables thus to study each of these channels separately. The decomposition is performed by a bank of lters, each one selecting a particular range of frequency values. This transformation models an actual process of human perception, corresponding to the distribution of frequencies into critical bands in the cochlea.

Flowchart Interconnections
mirlterbank accepts as input data type either: miraudio objects, where the audio waveform can be segmented (using mirsegment), le name or the Folder keyword.

Filterbank Selection
Two basic types of lterbanks are proposed in MIRtoolbox: mirlterbank(..., Gammatone) carries out a Gammatone lterbank decomposition (Patterson et al, 1992). It is known to

simulate well the response of the basilar membrane. It is based on a Equivalent Rectangular Bandwidth (ERB) lterbank, meaning that the width of each band is determined by a particular psychoacoustical law. For Gammatone lterbanks, mirlterbank calls the Auditory Toolbox routines MakeERBFilters and ERBlterbank. This is the default choice when calling mirlterbank.

traction using a half-wave rectication and the same low-pass lter used for the low-frequency channel. This lterbank is mainly used for multi-pitch extraction (cf. mirpitch).

Diagram of the two-channel lterbank proposed in (Tolonen and Karjalainen, 2000)

For these general type of lterbanks are chosen, further options are available: mirlterbank(...,'NbChannels', N) species the number of channels in the bank. By default: N = 10. This option is useless for 2Channels.
Ten ERB lters between 100 and 8000Hz (Slaney, 1998)

mirlterbank(...,'Lowest', f) indicates the lowest frequency f, in Hz. Default value: 50 Hz. mirlterbank(..., 2Channels) performs a computational simplication of the lterbank using just two channels, one for low-frequencies, below 1000 Hz, and one for highfrequencies, over 1000 Hz (Tolonen and Karjalainen, 2000). On the high-frequency channel is performed an envelope ex-

If this series of frequencies ends with Inf, the last lter is highpass. mirlterbank(...,'Order', o) species the order of the lters. The default is set to o = 4 (Scheirer, 1998) mirlterbank(...,'Hop', h) species the degree of spectral overlapping between successive channels. If h = 1 (default value), the lters are non-overlapping. If h = 2, the lters are half-overlapping. If h = 3, the spectral hop factor between successive lters is a third of the whole frequency region, etc.

Here is an example of audio le with its envelope:

Amplitude Envelope From an audio waveform can be computed the envelope, which shows the global outer shape of the signal. It is particularly useful in order to show the long term evolution of the signal, and has application in particular to the detection of musical events such as notes.

mirenvelope accepts as input data type either: miraudio objects, where the audio waveform can be segmented (using mirsegment) and/or decomposed into channels (using mirlterbank), le name or the Folder keyword. Besides, mirenvelope(..., Frame, ...) directly performs a frame decomposition on the resulting envelope. Indeed, the frame decomposition should not be performed before the envelope extraction, as it would induce signicant redundancy in the computation and arouse problems related to the transitory phases at the beginning of each frame. Default value: window length of 50 ms and half overlapping.

the envelope is estimated in a three-dimensional space dened by the product of the complex domain and the temporal axis. Indeed in this representation the signal looks like a spring of varying width, and the envelope would correspond to that varying width. In the real domain, on the other hand, the constant crossing of the signal with the zero axis may sometime give erroneous results. An Hilbert transform can be performed in mirenvelope, based on the Matlab function hilbert. In order to toggle on the Hilbert transform, the following keyword should be added: mirenvelope(..., Hilbert) Beware however that, although sometimes the use of the Hilbert transform seems to improve somewhat the results, and might in particular show clearer burst of energy, we noticed some problematic behavior, in particular at the beginning and the end of the signal, and after some particular bursts of energy. This becomes all the more problematic when chunk decompositions are used (cf. 5.3), since the continuity between chunk cannot be ensured any more. For that reason, since version 1.1 of MIRtoolbox, the use of Hilbert transform is toggled off by default. If the signal is in the real domain, the next step consists in a full-wave rectication, reecting all the negative lobes of the signal into the positive domain, leading to a series of positive half-wave lobes. The further smoothing of the sig31

Parameters specication
The envelope extraction is based on two alternate strategies: either based on a ltering of the signal (Filter option), or on a decomposition into frames via a spectrogram computation (Spectro option). Each of these strategies accepts particular options: mirenvelope(...,Filter) extract the envelope through a ltering of the signal. First the signal can be converted from the real domain to the complex domain using a Hilbert transform. In this way

nal (in the next step) will leads to an estimation of the envelope. If on the contrary the signal is in the complex domain, a direct estimation of the envelope can be obtained by computing the modulus, i.e., the width of the string. These two operations, either from the real or the complex domains, although apparently different, relate to the same Matlab command abs. mirenvelope(..., PreDecim, N) down-samples by a factor N>1, where N is an integer, before the low-pass ltering (Klapuri, 1999). Default value: N = 1, corresponding to no down-sampling. The next step consists in a low-pass lter than retain from the signal only the long-term evolution, by removing all the more rapid oscillations. This is performed through a ltering of the signal. Two types of lters are available, either a simple autoregressive coefcient, with Innite Impulse Response (IIR value in FilterType option), or a half-Hanning (raised cosine) lter (HalfHann value in FilterType option). - mirenvelope(..., FilterType, IIR) extract the envelope using an auto-regressive lter of innite impulse response (IIR):

Detail of the envelope extraction process

- The range of frequencies to be ltered can be controlled by selecting a proper value for the a parameter. Another way of expressing this parameter is by considering its time constant. If we feed the lter with a step function (i.e. 0 before time 0, and 1 after time 0), the time constant will correspond to the time it will take for the output to reach 63 % of the input. Hence higher time constant means smoother ltering. The default time constant is set to .02 seconds and can be changed using the option: mirenvelope(..., Tau, t) Remarks: As low-pass lters actually lead to a shifting of the phases of the signal. This is counteracted using a second ltering of the reverse signal. The time constant t is the time constant of each separate lter, therefore the resulting time constant is around twice bigger.

iBooks Author

The reverse ltering is not performed using Matlab ltlt function since version 1.1 of MIRtoolbox because this would not work in the case of chunk decomposition (cf. 5.3) but has been partly re-implemented. In particular, contrary to ltlt, care is not yet taken to minimize startup and ending transients by matching initial conditions. Once the signal has been smoothed, as there is a lot of redundancy between the successive samples, the signal can be down-sampled. The default parameter related to downsampling is the down-sampling rate N, i.e. the integer ratio between the old and the new sampling rate. N is set by default to 16, and can be changed using the option: mirenvelope(..., PostDecim, N) Alternatively, any sampling rate r (in Hz) can be specied using the post-processing option Sampling. mirenvelope(..., Trim): trims the initial ascending phase of the curves related to the transitory state.

mirspectrum(..., Frame, .1, s, .1, /1, Window, hanning, Power, b) mirenvelope(..., b) species whether the frequency range is further decomposed into bands (cf. mirspectrum). Possible values: b = Freq: no band decomposition (default value), b = Mel: Mel-band decomposition, b = Bark: Bark-band decomposition, b = Cents: decompositions into cents. mirenvelope(..., Frame,...) modies the default frame conguration. mirenvelope(..., UpSample, N) upsamples by a factor N>1, where N is an integer. Default value if UpSample called: N = 2 mirenvelope(..., Complex) toggles on the Complex method for the spectral ux computation (cf. mirux).

mirenvelope(..., Spectro) extracts the envelope through the computation of a power spectrogram, with frame size 100 ms, hop factor 10% and the use of Hanning windowing:

 mirenvelope(...,Sampling, r) resamples to rate r (in Hz). PostDecim and Sampling options cannot therefore be combined. mirenvelope(...,Halfwave) performs a half-wave rectication on the envelope. mirenvelope(...,Center) centers the extracted envelope.

mirenvelope(...,Mu, mu) computes the logarithm of the envelope, before the eventual differentiation, using a mu-law compression (Klapuri et al., 2006). Default value for mu: 100 mirenvelope(...,Power) computes the power (square) of the envelope. mirenvelope(...,Diff) computes the differentiation of the envelope, i.e., the differences between successive samples.

mirenvelope(...,HalfwaveCenter) performs a half-wave rectication on the centered envelope.

mirenvelope(...,HalfwaveDiff) performs a half-wave rectication on the differentiated envelope.

mirspectrum

For an audio signal x, the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) has for equation:

The amplitude spectrum displays the modulus of Xk for all k:

Discrete Fourier Transform A decomposition of the energy of a signal (be it an audio waveform, or an envelope, etc.) along frequencies can be performed using a Discrete Fourier Transform. This decomposition is performed by the mirspectrum operator by calling a Matlab fft function that performs Fast Fourier Transform. The graph returned by the function highlights the repartition of the amplitude of the frequencies. We can also obtain for each frequency the actual phase position (i.e., the phase of Xk), which indicates the exact position of each frequency component at the instant t = 0.

If the result of the spectrum decomposition is s, the phase spectrum is obtained by using the command: get(s, Phase)

Flowchart Interconnections
mirspectrum accepts as input data type either: miraudio objects, where the audio waveform can be segmented (using mirsegment), decomposed into channels (using mirlterbank), and/or decomposed into frames (using mirframe or the Frame option, with by default a frame length of 50 ms and half overlapping);

Parameters specication
The range of frequencies, in Hz, can be specied by the options: mirspectrum(..., Min, mi) indicates the lowest frequency taken into consideration, expressed in Hz. Default value: 0 Hz. mirspectrum(..., Max, ma) indicates the highest frequency taken into consideration, expressed in Hz. Default value: the maximal possible frequency, corresponding to the sampling rate divided by 2. mirspectrum(..., Window, w) species the windowing method. Windows are used to avoid the problems due to the discontinuities provoked by nite signals. Indeed, an audio sequence is not innite, and the application of the DFT requires to replace the innite time before and after the sequence by zeroes, leading to possible discontinuities at the borders. Windows are used to counteract those discontinuities. Possible values for w are either w = 0 (no windowing) or any windowing function proposed in the Signal Processing Toolbox2. De37

fault value: w = hamming, the Hamming window being a particular good window for DFT. mirspectrum(..., NormalInput) normalizes the waveform between 0 and 1 before computing the DFT. mirspectrum(..., Phase, No) does not compute the phase spectrum. The phase is not computed anyway whenever another option that will make the phase information irrelevant (such as Log, dB, etc.) is specied.

The audio waveform is automatically zero-padded to the lowest power of 2 ensuring the required frequency resolution. mirspectrum(..., MinRes, r, OctaveRatio, tol): Indicates the minimal accepted resolution in terms of number of divisions of the octave. Low frequencies are ignored in order to reach the desired resolution. The corresponding required frequency resolution is equal to the difference between the rst frequency bins, multiplied by the constraining multiplicative factor tol (set by default to .75). mirspectrum(...,Res, r) species the frequency resolution r (in Hz) that will be secured as closely as possible, through an automated zero-padding. The length of the resulting audio waveform will not necessarily be a power of 2, therefore the FFT computation will not be optimal. mirspectrum(...,Length, l) species the length of the audio waveform after zero-padding. If the length is not a power of 2, the FFT computation will not be optimal. mirspectrum(...,ZeroPad, s) performs a zero-padding of s samples. If the total length is not a power of 2, the FFT computation will not be optimal. mirspectrum(...,WarningRes, mr) indicates a required frequency resolution, in Hz, for the input signal. If the resolution does not reach that prerequisite, a warning is displayed.
38

Resolution specication
The frequency resolution of the spectrum directly depends on the size of the audio waveform: the longer the waveform, the better the frequency resolution. It is possible, however, to increase the frequency resolution of a given audio waveform by simply adding a series of zeros at the end of the sequence, which is called zero-padding. Besides, an optimized version of the FFT can be performed if the length of the audio waveform (including the zero-padding) is a power of 2. For this reason, by default, a zero-padding is performed by default in order to ensure that the length of the audio waveform is a power of 2. But these operations can be tuned individually: mirspectrum(...,MinRes, mr) adds a constraint related to the a minimal frequency resolution, xed to the value mr (in Hz).

iBooks Author

Alternatively, the spectrum decomposition can be performed through a Constant Q Transform instead of a FFT, which enables to express the frequency resolution as a constant number of bins per octave: mirspectrum(...,ConstantQ, nb) xes the number of bins per octave to nb. Default value when the ConstantQ option is toggled on: nb=12 bins per octave. Please note however that the Constant Q Transform is implemented as a Matlab M le, whereas Matlabs FFT algorithm is optimized, therefore faster.

mirspectrum(...,Power) squares the energy: each magnitude is squared. mirspectrum(..., dB) represents the spectrum energy in decibel scale. For the previous example we obtain the following spectrum:

Post-processing options
mirspectrum(...,Terhardt) modulates the energy following (Terhardt, 1979) outer ear model. The function is mainly characterized by an attenuation in the lower and higher registers of the spectrum, and an emphasis around 25 KHz, where much of the speech information is carried. (Code based on Pampalk's MA toolbox). mirspectrum(..., Normal) normalizes with respect to energy: each magnitude is divided by the euclidian norm (root sum of the squared magnitude). mirspectrum(..., NormalLength) normalizes with respect to the duration (in s.) of the audio input data.

mirspectrum(..., 'dB', th) keeps only the highest energy over a range of th dB. For example if we take only the 20 most highest dB in the previous example we obtain:

mirspectrum(...,Resonance, r) multiplies the spectrum curve with a resonance curve that emphasizes pulsations that are more easily perceived. Two resonance curves are available:

Default value when the option is toggled on: o=10 mirspectrum(...,Gauss, o) smooths the envelope using a gaussian of standard deviation o samples. Default value when the option is toggled on: o=10

mirspectrum(ragtime,Cents)

Frequency redistribution
mirspectrum(..., Cents) redistributes the frequencies along cents. Each octave is decomposed into 1200 bins equally distant in the logarithmic representation. The frequency axis is hence expressed in MIDI-cents unit: to each pitch of the equal temperament is associated the corresponding MIDI pitch standard value multiply by 100 (69*100=6900 for A4=440Hz, 70*100=7000 for B4, etc.).

It has to be noticed that this decomposition requires a frequency resolution that gets higher for lower frequencies: a centdistribution starting from innitely low frequency (near 0 Hz would require an innite frequency resolution). Hence by default, the cent-decomposition is dened only for the frequency range suitable for the frequency resolution initially associated to the given spectrum representation. Two levers are available here: If a minimal frequency range for the spectrum representation has been set (using the Min parameter), the frequency resolution of the spectrum is automatically set in order to meet that particular requirement.

mirspectrum(ragtime,Cents,Min,100)

40

iBooks Author

 By increasing the frequency resolution of the spectrum (for instance by using the Res or MinRes parameters), the frequency range will be increased accordingly. mirspectrum(..., Collapsed) collapses the cent-spectrum into one octave. In the resulting spectrum, the abscissa contains in total 1200 bins, representing the 1200 cents of one octave, and each bin contains the energy related to one position of one octave and of all the multiple of this octave.

mirspectrum(ragtime,Cents,Min,100,Co#apsed)

mirspectrum(..., Mel) redistributes the frequencies along Mel bands. The Mel-scale of auditory pitch was established on the basis of listening experiments with simple tones (Stevens and Volkman, 1940). The Mel scale is now mainly used for the reason of its historical priority only. It is closely related to the Bark scale. It requires the Auditory Toolbox. mirspectrum(..., Bands, b) species the number of band in the decomposition. By default b = 40. In our example we obtain the following:

The Mel-scale transformation requires a sufcient frequency resolution of the spectrum: as the lower bands are separated with a distance of 66 Hz, the frequency resolution should be higher than 66 Hz in order to ensure that each Mel band can be associated with at least one frequency bin of the spectrum. If the Mel option is performed in the same mirspectrum command that performs the actual FFT, then the minimal frequency resolution is implicitly ensured, by forcing the minimal frequency resolution (MinRes parameter) to be equal or below 66 Hz. If on the contrary the Mel is performed in a second step, and if the frequency resolution is worse than 66 Hz, then a warning message is displayed in the Command Window. mirspectrum(..., Bark) redistributes the frequencies along critical band rates (in Bark). Measurement of the classical "critical bandwidth" typically involves loudness summation experiments (Zwicker et al., 1957). The critical band rate scale differs from Mel-scale mainly in that it uses the critical band as a natural scale unit. The code is based on the MA toolbox.

 mirspectrum(..., Mask) models masking phenomena in each band: when a certain energy appears at a given frequency, lower frequencies in the same frequency region may be unheard, following particular equations. By modeling these masking effects, the unheard periodicities are removed from the spectrum. The code is based on the MA toolbox. In our example this will lead to:

the original signal. Default value is m = 1:6. Hence for this initial spectrum:

we obtain this reduced spectrum:

Harmonic spectral analysis

A lot of natural sounds, especially musical ones, are harmonic: each sound consists of a series of frequencies at a multiple ratio of the one of lowest frequency, called fundamental. Techniques have been developed in signal processing to reduce each harmonic series to its fundamental, in order to simplify the representation. MIRtoolbox includes two related techniques for the attenuation of harmonics in spectral representation (Alonso et al, 2003): mirspectrum(..., Prod, m) Enhances components that have harmonics located at multiples of range(s) m of the signal's fundamental frequency. Computed by compressing the signal by thea list of factors m, and by multiplying all the results with mirspectrum(..., Sum, m) Similar idea using addition of the multiples instead of multiplication.

First a logarithm is performed in order to allow an additive separability of product components of the original spectrum. For instance, for the voice in particular, the spectrum is composed of a product of a vocal cord elementary burst, their echoes, and the vocal track. In the logarithm representations, these components are now added one to each other, and we will then be able to detect the periodic signal as one of the components. Then because the logarithm provokes some modication of the phase, it is important to ensure that the phase remains continuous. Finally the second Fourier transform is performed in order to nd the periodic sequences. As it is sometime a little difcult to conceive what a Fourier transform of Fourier transform is really about, we can simply say, as most say, that it is in fact an Inverse Fourier Transform (as it is the same thing, after all), and the results can then be expressed in a kind of temporal domain, with unit called quefrency.

Spectral Analysis Of Spectrum The harmonic sequence can also be used for the detection of the fundamental frequency itself. One idea is to look at the spectrum representation, and try to automatically detect these periodic sequences. And one simple idea consists in performing a Fourier Transform of the Fourier Transform itself, leading to a so-called cepstrum (Bogert et al., 1963).

Autocorrelation Function Another way to evaluate periodicities in signals (be it an audio waveform, a spectrum, an envelope, etc.) consists in looking at local correlation between samples. For a given lag j, the autocorrelation Rxx(j) is computed by multiplying point par point the signal with a shifted version of it of j samples.

Distance Between Successive Frames Given a spectrogram, we can compute the spectral ux as being the distance between the spectrum of each successive frames. The peaks in the curve indicate the temporal position of important contrast in the spectrogram. In MIRtoolbox uxes are generalized to any kind of frame-decomposed representation, for instance a cepstral ux.

Temporal Length Of Sequences mirlength returns the temporal length of the temporal sequence given in input, which can be either an audio waveform (miraudio) or an envelope curve (mirenvelope). If the input was decomposed into segments (mirsegment), mirlength returns a curve indicating the series of temporal duration associated with each successive segment.

Lorem Ipsum The energy curve can be used to get an assessment of the temporal distribution of energy, in order to see if its remains constant throughout the signal, or if some frames are more contrastive than others. One way to estimate this consists in computing the low energy rate, i.e. the percentage of frames showing less-than-average energy (Tzanetakis and Cook, 2002).

Sensory Dissonance Plomp and Levelt (1965) has proposed an estimation of the sensory dissonance, or roughness, related to the beating phenomenon whenever pair of sinusoids are closed in frequency. The authors propose as a result an estimation of roughness depending on the frequency ratio of each pair of sinusoids represented as follows. An estimation of the total roughness is available in mirroughness by computing the peaks of the spectrum, and taking the average of all the dissonance between all possible pairs of peaks (Sethares, 1998).

Automated Transcription Segments the audio into events, extracts pitches related to each event and attempts a conversion of the result into a MIDI representation. The audio segmentation is based on the onset detection given by mironsets. The MIDI output is represented using the MIDI Toolbox note matrix representation. The displayed output is the piano-roll representation of the MIDI data, which requires MIDI Toolbox. Similarly, the result can be sonied using mirplay and saved using mirsave, once again with the help of MIDI Toolbox.

Partials Non-multiple Of Fundamentals mirinharmonicity(x) estimates the inharmonicity, i.e., the amount of partials that are not multiples of the fundamental frequency, as a value between 0 and 1. More precisely, the inharmonicity considered here takes into account the amount of energy outside the ideal harmonic series. For that purpose, we use a simple function estimating the inharmonicity of each frequency given the fundamental frequency f0.

Measurement of the classical "critical bandwidth" typically involves loudness summation experiments (Zwicker et al., 1957). The critical band rate scale differs from Melscale mainly in that it uses the critical band as a natural scale unit. mirlterbank(..., Bark) performs a lterbank decomposition using elliptic lters, by default of order 4, and based on a Bark scale. mirenvelope(..., Spectro, Bark) extracts the envelope through the computation of a power spectrogram, and the frequency range is further decomposed into Bark-bands. mirspectrum(..., Bark) redistributes the frequencies along critical band rates (in Bark). The code is based on the MA toolbox.

Frame Decomposition
The analysis of a whole temporal signal (such as an audio waveform in particular) leads to a global description of the average value of the feature under study. In order to take into account the dynamic evolution of the feature, the analysis has to be carried out on a short-term window that moves chronologically along the temporal signal. Each position of the window is called a frame.

Tau
mirenvelope(..., Tau, t) species the time constant associated with the autoregressive lter of innite impulse response (IIR) used for low-pass ltering.: If we feed the lter with a step function (i.e. 0 before time 0, and 1 after time 0), the time constant will correspond to the time it will take for the output to reach 63 % of the input. Hence higher time constant means smoother ltering. The default time constant is set to .02 seconds.

Window
mirspectrum(..., Window, w) species the windowing method. Windows are used to avoid the problems due to the discontinuities provoked by nite signals. Indeed, an audio sequence is not innite, and the application of the Fourier Transform requires to replace the innite time before and after the sequence by zeroes, leading to possible discontinuities at the borders. Windows are used to counteract those discontinuities. Possible values for w are either w = 0 (no windowing) or any windowing function proposed in the Signal Processing Toolbox. The list of possible window arguments can be found in the window documentation (help window). Default value: w = hamming, the Hamming window being a particular good window for Fourier Transform.
