This book was released on 2021-08-02 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2021 in the subject Musicology - Miscellaneous, grade: 8.0, , course: IMSc Mathematics and Computing, language: English, abstract: This work gives a comprehensive overview of research on the multidisciplinary field of Music Information Retrieval (MIR). MIR uses knowledge from areas as diverse as signal processing, machine learning, information and music theory. The Main Feature of this work is to explore how this knowledge can be used for the development of novel methodologies for browsing and retrieval on large music collections, a hot topic given recent advances in online music distribution and searching. Emphasis would be given to audio signal processing techniques. Music information retrieval (MIR) is the interdisciplinary science of retrieving information from music. MIR is a small but growing field of research with many realworld applications. Those involved in MIR may have a background in musicology, sychoacoustics, psychology, academic music study, signal processing, informatics, machine learning, optical music recognition, computational intelligence or some combination of these. MIR is being used by businesses and academics to categorize, manipulate and even create music. One of the classical MIR research topics is genre classification, which is categorizing music items into one of pre-defined genres such as classical, jazz, rock, etc. Mood classification, artist classification, and music tagging are also popular topics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication is attempted to address emerging trends in machine learning applications. Recent trends in information identification have identified huge scope in applying machine learning techniques for gaining meaningful insights. Random growth of unstructured data poses new research challenges to handle this huge source of information. Efficient designing of machine learning techniques is the need of the hour. Recent literature in machine learning has emphasized on single technique of information identification. Huge scope exists in developing hybrid machine learning models with reduced computational complexity for enhanced accuracy of information identification. This book will focus on techniques to reduce feature dimension for designing light weight techniques for real time identification and decision fusion. Key Findings of the book will be the use of machine learning in daily lives and the applications of it to improve livelihood. However, it will not be able to cover the entire domain in machine learning in its limited scope. This book is going to benefit the research scholars, entrepreneurs and interdisciplinary approaches to find new ways of applications in machine learning and thus will have novel research contributions. The lightweight techniques can be well used in real time which will add value to practice.

Book Acoustical Analysis of the Tanpura

Download or read book Acoustical Analysis of the Tanpura written by Asoke Kumar Datta and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-01 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the acoustic signal analysis and spectral dynamics of the tanpura, an Indian plucked string instrument. In addition, it strives to provide a logical and objective explanation of Indian classical musicians’ cognitive experience. Issues of relevance in this regard include the rich, mellifluous sound; the undulation of the loudness; the somewhat cyclical variation of the timbre, which is strongly related to these undulations; and the occasional perception of virtual notes to which no strings are tuned. The book analyses the materials used in the tanpura, the instrument’s simple structure, the intricacies of the lower bridge, and the theory of string vibration with variable string length. Cognitive experiments to provide the basis for perceptual quality assessment, as well as a methodology for ranking, are described. This is followed by acoustic analyses, both temporal and spectral, for sounds produced by male and female tanpuras, for each individual string and the combined one. An important aspect related to the naturalness of perceived sound, namely the intrinsically associated random perturbations, is also discussed. The apparent irregularities perceived in the acoustic signal produced by the tanpura reveal the importance of examining the signal from the perspective of non-linear analysis, an aspect that is also covered in the book. Given its scope, the book will appeal to students and researchers in the fields of music acoustics, artificial intelligence, and cognitive science, as well as musicians and musicologists around the world.

Book Objective Classification of Hindustani Ragas

Download or read book Objective Classification of Hindustani Ragas written by Poonam Priyadarshini and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2019-05-27 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2019 in the subject Musicology, grade: NA, , language: English, abstract: The aim of the research work presented in this book, is to find important features of the music signal so that we can classify the raga into different category. It will encourage the scientific research in Indian Classical music, specifically Hindustani music. The main objectives of the study include: • Extraction of features of a music signal which are relevant for classification of the music signal using different techniques. • To determine whether the artists singing the raga during a concert belongs to same gharana or different gharanas by finding the MFCC (Mel frequency cepstral co-efficients ) features of a music signal. Andrew plot is used to study the results. • Comparison between two types of ragas, one being aesthetically known to be restful raga and the other restless in nature is done by finding statistical features. Distinction between the two types of raga is done by finding the mean, standard deviation and Inter onset interval. The Transitory and non-transitory frequency movements between the notes of both ragas is determined. • Statistical Modeling of ragas is done to distinguish between Restful ragas and Restless Ragas. Simple Exponential smoothing techniques is used for Modeling the Restless Ragas Pilu and Bhairavi and Double exponential Smoothing techniques is used for Modeling the Restful Raga Todi . • The work is focused on music emotion representation. The characteristics features of music signal such as rhythm, melody, pitch and timbre are studied. Among these which parameter(s) play a major role in creating happy or sad emotion in the song or music samples are studied.

Book The Influence of Hindustani Classical Music on Bollywood Songs  A Statistical Outlook

Download or read book The Influence of Hindustani Classical Music on Bollywood Songs A Statistical Outlook written by Amrita Singh and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2019-07-19 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Musicology - Miscellaneous, grade: 8.5, , language: English, abstract: The present work attempts to study the impact of Hindustani Classical Music on Bollywood in a legitimate manner using a statistical approach emphasizing on statistical modeling of musical structure and performance and other statistical features such as note duration and inter onset interval with a case study in raga Yaman. Any music originates in the society and develops with the changing realities of it. It accepts new and modifies the existing cultural norms in different periods of time. This process of acceptance and rejection makes any form of art exist for long. Inspite of all this, in various phases, Hindustani classical music, being the base of many popular Bollywood songs has helped in their popularity and lifelong existence because of the strong focus on melody. A raga, which is the nucleus of Indian classical music, be it Hindustani or Carnatic, is a melodic structure with fixed notes and a set of rules which characterize a certain mood conveyed by erformance. Hindustani ragas have embraced the elements of several Bollywood songs, which has given these songs a strong impact despite the strong influence of western art music in Bollywood music industry. The present work attempts to study this impact in a legitimate manner using a statistical approach emphasizing on statistical modeling of musical structure and performance and other statistical features such as note duration and inter onset interval with a case study in raga Yaman. It turns out that the same statistical model for both the raga bandishand a song based on the same raga, i.e., Yaman, an evening raga of the Kalyan thaat.
