Bayesian Pitch Tracking Using Harmonic model

A fast pitch tracking algorithm using the harmonic model.

The preprint version of the article for this work is available in HERE

How to run

Run run_white_example.m (white Gaussian noise) or run_colored_example.m (factory noise) in MATLAB

Examples

Figure 1: Pitch estimates for speech signals under 0 dB white Gaussian noise (Running time on my laptop is around 2.6 s).

Figure 2: Pitch estimates for speech signals under 0 dB factory noise (Running time on my laptop is around 9.3 s, and prewhitening is used).

Figure 3: Pitch estimates for music signals (vibrato flute sound) under 0 dB white Gaussian noise (Running time on my laptop is around 32.2 s).
