Pitch analysis of the speech signal using Michel's (M)odified (H)armonic (S)ieve algorithm (From the 'wrassp' package)

mhsF0.Rd

mhsF0 function adapted from libassp

Usage

mhsF0(
  listOfFiles = NULL,
  optLogFilePath = NULL,
  beginTime = 0,
  centerTime = FALSE,
  endTime = 0,
  windowShift = 5,
  gender = "u",
  maxF = 600,
  minF = 50,
  minAmp = 50,
  minAC1 = 0.25,
  minRMS = 18,
  maxZCR = 3000,
  minProb = 0.52,
  plainSpectrum = FALSE,
  toFile = TRUE,
  explicitExt = NULL,
  outputDirectory = NULL,
  forceToLog = useWrasspLogger,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

listOfFiles

vector of file paths to be processed by function

optLogFilePath

path to option log file

beginTime

= <time>: set begin of analysis interval to <time> seconds (default = 0: begin of file)

centerTime

= <time>: set single-frame analysis with the analysis window centred at <time> seconds; overrules beginTime, endTime and windowShift options

endTime

= <time>: set end of analysis interval to <time> seconds (default = 0: end of file)

windowShift

= <dur>: set analysis window shift to <dur> ms (default: 5.0)

gender

= <code> set gender-specific pitch ranges; <code> may be: "f[emale]" (80.0 - 600.0 Hz) "m[ale]" (50.0 - 375.0 Hz) "u[nknown]" (default; 50.0 - 600.0 Hz)

maxF

= <freq>: set maximum pitch value to <freq> Hz (default: 500.0)

minF

= <freq>: set minimum pitch value to <freq> Hz (default: 50.0 minimum: 25.0)

minAmp

= <amp>: minimum signal amplitude (default: 50)

minAC1

= <freq>: minimum 1st correlation coefficient (default: 0.250)

minRMS

= <num>: minimum RMS amplitude in dB (default: 18.0)

maxZCR

= <freq>: maximum zero crossing rate in Hz (default: 3000)

minProb

= <num>: minimum quality value of F0 fit (default: 0.520)

plainSpectrum

use plain rather than masked power spectrum

toFile

write results to file (default extension is .pit)

explicitExt

set if you wish to override the default extension

outputDirectory

directory in which output files are stored. Defaults to NULL, i.e. the directory of the input files

forceToLog

is set by the global package variable useWrasspLogger. This is set to FALSE by default and should be set to TRUE is logging is desired.

verbose

display infos & show progress bar

Value

nrOfProcessedFiles or if only one file to process return AsspDataObj of that file

Details

Pitch analysis of the speech signal in <listOfFile> using Michel's/Modified Harmonic Sieve algorithm. Analysis results will be written to a file with the base name of the input file and extension '.pit'. Default output is in SSFF binary format (track 'pitch').
