Description :
The musical instrument sound can be described by four factors: pitch, loudness, duration, and
timbre. The timbre can be referred as a feature of an audio that allows us to differentiate two sounds that
are of same pitch,
loudness and duration. The musical instruments can be generally classified into three
categories as wind instruments (e.g.flute), string instruments (e.g. violin) and rhythm instruments (e.g.
drum).Variation in musical pitch recognition is primarily due t
o highly heritable differences in auditory
functions not tested by conventional audiologic methods. In pattern recognition applications, finding
compact and efficient feature set is important in overall problem solving.The aim of project is to identify
and
classify the musical instruments. The new prosposed wavelet coeffcient features found compact and
efficient with existing traditional features.
