The major reference point is the theory of Critical Band and its use for evaluating consonance of simple tones. On the basis of such empirical criterion, our aim consists in providing a method of estimating the value of consonance of complex tones, by taking account not only of the number of harmonics, but also of the intensity of the partials which contribute to forming the tone. By introducing a specific algorithm, the level of consonance of a chord of complex tones is expressed in terms both of frequency differences and sound intensity of the partials. The results give rise to a series of considerations and applications, ranging from displaying the order of consonance of all intervals within the octave up to evaluating the hierarchy of chords in the frame of a musical scale.展开更多

The first and second order differentials of the fundamental frequency logarithmically converted are used as feature parameters. A left-to-right hidden Markov modeling with five states, each of which is modeled by a single Gaussian distribution, expresses each of Chinese tones. Non-voiced portions are coded by random values normally distributed to uniformly deal with all the time frames in an utterance. Speaker dependent tone recognition was conducted for ten speakers. The average rate of 81.8% was obtained for these speakers.展开更多
