Parameters
*dataa pointer to NULL
Nnot used
*argva pointer to an array containing a double representing the maximum value in a spectrum, and a double representing the mean value of a spectrum
*resultthe spectral crest of N values from the array pointed to by *data
int xtract_f0 ( const double *  data,
const int  N,
const void *  argv,
double *  result 
)

Extract the fundamental frequency of an input vector.

Parameters
*dataa pointer to the first element in an array of doubles representing an audio vector
Nthe number of elements to be considered
*argva pointer to a double representing the audio sample rate
*resultthe pitch of N values from the array pointed to by *data

This algorithm is based on the AMDF, with peak and centre clipping. It would benefit from further improvements to improve noise robustness and overall efficiency

It is based on suggestion by Robert Bristow-Johnson in a discussion on the comp.dsp mailing list, subject "Reference implementation of pitch detection"

int xtract_failsafe_f0 ( const double *  data,
const int  N,
const void *  argv,
double *  result 
)

Extract the fundamental frequency of an input vector.

Parameters
*dataa pointer to the first element in an array of doubles representing an audio vector
Nthe number of elements to be considered
*argva pointer to a double representing the audio sample rate
*resultthe pitch of N values from the array pointed to by *data

This function wraps xtract_f0, but provides the frequency of the lowest partial in the peak spectrum if f0 can't be found.

int xtract_flatness ( const double *  data,
const int  N,
const void *  argv,
double *  result 
)

Extract the spectral flatness measure of an input vector, where the flatness measure (SFM) is defined as the ratio of the geometric mean to the arithmetic mean of a magnitude spectrum.

Note
The computation method used here is the most efficient by a significant margin, but suffers from precision problems due to the multiplication operationin the geometric mean calculation. This is particularly accute for larger values of N (>=256). However, as noted by Peeters (2003), the SFM should generally be computed on a small number of 'bands' rather than on the complete magnitude spectrum. It is therefore highly recommended that xtract_bands() is used prior to calling xtract_flatness().
Parameters
*dataa pointer to the first element in an array of doubles representing the magnitude coefficients from the spectrum of an audio vector, (e.g. the first half of the array pointed to by *result from xtract_spectrum(). Alternatively the magnitudes from a number of 'subbands' can be used by using *result from xtract_bands().

*resultthe flatness of N values from the array pointed to by *data

Nthe number of elements to be considered
*argva pointer to a double representing the mean of the input vector
*resultthe variance of N values from the array pointed to by *data
int xtract_wavelet_f0 ( const double *  data,
const int  N,
const void *  argv,
double *  result 
)

Extract the fundamental frequency of an input vector using wavelet-based method.

Parameters
*dataa pointer to the first element in an array of doubles representing an audio vector
Nthe number of elements to be considered
*argva pointer to a double representing the audio sample rate
*resultthe pitch of N values from the array pointed to by *data

This function uses the time-domain wavelet-based method described in Larson and Maddox (2005) and implemented in the dywapitchtrack library

xtract_init_wavelet_f0_state() must be called exactly once prior to calling xtract_wavelet_f0()

int xtract_zcr ( const double *  data,
const int  N,
const void *  argv,
double *  result 
)

Extract the zero crossing rate of an input vector.

Parameters
*dataa pointer to the first element in an array of doubles
Nthe number of elements to be considered
*argva pointer to NULL
*resultthe zero crossing rate of N values from the array pointed to by *data
