椭圆傅里叶描述符英文

椭圆傅里叶描述符英文The Elliptical Fourier DescriptorsThe Elliptical Fourier Descriptors (EFDs) are a powerful tool used in the field of image analysis and shape recognition. They provide a mathematical representation of the shape of an object or a closed contour, allowing for the quantification and comparison of shapes. The EFDs are particularly useful in applications where the shape of an object is an important feature, such as in biological studies, pattern recognition, and computer vision.The Fourier transform is a fundamental mathematical concept that allows for the decomposition of a periodic function into a sum of sine and cosine waves with different frequencies and amplitudes. The Elliptical Fourier Descriptors extend this idea to the description of closed contours in two-dimensional space. Instead of representing the contour as a function of a single variable (such as the angle around the contour), the EFDs represent the contour as a function of two variables, the x and y coordinates.The process of obtaining the Elliptical Fourier Descriptors for a given contour involves several steps. First, the contour is digitized,meaning that the coordinates of a finite number of points along the contour are recorded. These points are then used to calculate the Fourier coefficients that define the EFDs.The Fourier coefficients are calculated by considering the x and y coordinates of the contour as separate periodic functions. For each coordinate, the Fourier series expansion is computed, yielding a set of Fourier coefficients. These coefficients are then used to reconstruct the contour, with the lower-order coefficients capturing the overall shape of the contour and the higher-order coefficients capturing the finer details.One of the key advantages of the Elliptical Fourier Descriptors is their ability to provide a compact and efficient representation of the shape of an object. The shape can be described using a relatively small number of Fourier coefficients, making it possible to store and compare shapes efficiently. This is particularly useful in applications where large numbers of shapes need to be analyzed or compared, such as in biological studies or industrial quality control.Another advantage of the EFDs is their invariance to certain transformations of the shape, such as translation, rotation, and scaling. This means that the Fourier coefficients are not affected by these transformations, making it possible to compare shapes that have been subjected to different transformations.The Elliptical Fourier Descriptors have found numerous applications in various fields. In biology, they have been used to study the shapes of plant leaves, pollen grains, and other biological structures. In computer vision, they have been used for object recognition and shape-based image retrieval. In industrial applications, they have been used for quality control and defect detection.Despite their many advantages, the Elliptical Fourier Descriptors are not without their limitations. One of the main challenges is the selection of the appropriate number of Fourier coefficients to use in the representation of a shape. Too few coefficients may result in a poor approximation of the shape, while too many coefficients can lead to overfitting and increased computational complexity.Another challenge is the interpretation of the Fourier coefficients themselves. While the coefficients provide a compact and efficient representation of the shape, they do not necessarily have a clear physical interpretation. This can make it difficult to understand the underlying shape characteristics that are being captured by the EFDs.Despite these challenges, the Elliptical Fourier Descriptors remain an important and widely-used tool in the field of image analysis and shape recognition. As computational power and storage capabilities continue to increase, the use of EFDs is likely to become even morewidespread, with applications in an ever-widening range of fields.In conclusion, the Elliptical Fourier Descriptors are a powerful mathematical tool that provides a compact and efficient representation of the shape of an object or a closed contour. They have found numerous applications in fields such as biology, computer vision, and industrial quality control, and their use is likely to continue to grow in the years to come.。

The Chinese language, a linguistic masterpiece with a history spanning thousands of years, stands as one of the world's most ancient and extensively spoken tongues. Its multifaceted nature, rich cultural heritage, and unique linguistic features make it a fascinating subject for exploration. This essay provides a comprehensive, multi-dimensional analysis of the Chinese language, delving into its characteristics, structure, writing system, tonal qualities, and philosophical underpinnings, thereby showcasing its profound complexity and distinctiveness.I. Historical Depth and Cultural SignificanceThe Chinese language, particularly in its written form, is a testament to the endurance of human civilization. With a recorded history exceeding 3,000 years, it boasts an unbroken lineage that has weathered the test of time, witnessing the rise and fall of dynasties, the evolution of thought, and the transformation of societies. This longevity is closely tied to its role as the primary vehicle of Chinese culture, encapsulating literature, philosophy, art, and science. The classical texts like the Four Books and Five Classics, the Analects of Confucius, and Tao Te Ching not only shaped the moral, ethical, and intellectual fabric of China but also exerted profound influence on East Asian cultures at large.II. A Character-based Writing System: Logograms and IdeographsOne of the most distinctive aspects of Chinese is its writing system, which employs logograms or ideographs – characters that represent words or morphemes rather than sounds. Unlike phonetic scripts such as the Latin alphabet, each Chinese character encapsulates meaning independently, often derived from its pictographic, ideographic, or phonetic origins. This visual representation of language allows for a remarkable degree of semantic density and concision, with a single character capable of conveying a wealth of information. Moreover, this script transcends dialectical differences, serving as a unifying force across the vast expanse of China where numerous regional languages coexist. The artistry and calligraphic beauty of Chinese characters further contribute to their cultural significance, turning written language into an aesthetic pursuit.III. Tonal Complexity: Melody in SpeechChinese is renowned for its tonal system, a feature absent in many Western languages. Mandarin Chinese, the most widely spoken variety, utilizes four tones (plus a neutral tone) to distinguish word meanings. These tones, characterized by variations in pitch contour, are crucial for accurate communication, as a change in tone can entirely alter the meaning of a word. For instance, the syllable "ma" can signify "mother," "horse," "scold," or "hemp," depending on the tone employed. This tonal aspect adds an auditory dimension to the language, imbuing it with a musical quality and posing a significant challenge for non-native learners. Tones also interact dynamically with sentence intonation, creating a rich prosodic landscape that conveys nuanced emotions and attitudes.IV. Syntax and Grammar: A Flexible FrameworkIn terms of syntax, Chinese exhibits a subject–verb–object (SVO) wordorder, similar to English. However, unlike English, Chinese is a largely context-dependent language with a high tolerance for ambiguity and ellipsis. Word order can be manipulated for emphasis or rhetorical effect, and grammatical relationships are often inferred through contextual cues rather than explicit markers like prepositions or inflections. Furthermore, Chinese employs classifiers (measure words) for counting nouns, a feature absent in English, reflecting its meticulous attention to categorization and classification.V. Philosophical Underpinnings: The Concept of Yin-Yang and the Five ElementsThe Chinese language is deeply intertwined with the philosophical principles that have shaped Chinese thought. The concept of Yin-Yang, representing complementary and interdependent forces, is reflected in the language's use of dualistic expressions and balanced sentence structures. Similarly, the Five Elements theory, which categorizes natural phenomena into Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water, influences the language's metaphorical expressions and color vocabulary. These philosophical underpinnings contribute to the language's ability to convey abstract concepts and subtle nuances, making it a potent tool for expressing complex ideas and emotions.VI. The Language in Contemporary Context: Evolution and Global Reach Despite its ancient roots, Chinese is not static; it continues to evolve, adapting to the needs of modern society. New words and expressions emerge to accommodate technological advancements, globalization, and social changes, while efforts to simplify the writing system and standardize pronunciation reflect a commitment to accessibility and unity. Simultaneously, the global spread of Chinese, driven by China's economic ascendancy and cultural soft power, has led to the emergence of 'Chinese as a Foreign Language' (CFL) education worldwide, fostering international communication and understanding.In conclusion, the Chinese language, with its historical depth, unique writing system, tonal intricacy, flexible syntax, philosophical foundations, and ongoing evolution, embodies a rich tapestry of linguistic and cultural treasures. Its distinctiveness lies not only in its structural and phonological features but also in the way it reflects and perpetuates the philosophical and cultural essence of China. As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, understanding and appreciating the complexities of the Chinese language assumes greater importance, contributing to cross-cultural dialogue, mutual understanding, and the preservation of linguistic diversity.。

The exquisitely rendered musculature rippling across the figure's body bespeaks Rodin's tireless study of anatomy and movement. Each bulging tendon, each taut curve of muscle, has been painstakingly captured in bronze, breathing life into the inanimate material.And yet, despite its imposing physicality, The Thinker exudes a sense of profound introspection and deep mental exertion. The furrowed brow, the chin resting pensively upon the clenched fist, the eyes cast downward in intense rumination – these subtle details powerfully convey the figure's absorption in the intellectual realm. Rodin has elevated the modest act of thinking into a herculean endeavor, celebrating the life of the mind with the grandeur typically reserved for depictions of physical, rather than cerebral, exertion.This simultaneous rendering of both corporeal and incorporeal qualities imbues The Thinker with a captivating sense of dynamism and visual tension. The massive, dense physicality of the sculpture appears almost at odds with the ethereal weightlessness evoked by the figure's posture of profound contemplation. It is this seamless fusion of diametric elements –material and immaterial, corporeal and mental, motion and stillness – that lends the work its emotional resonance and enduring mystery.Of course, any discussion of The Thinker's aesthetic power would be incomplete without considering its overarching symbolic significance. The sculpture was originally conceived as the crowning element of Rodin's epic Gates of Hell, itself inspired by Dante's Inferno. And yet, viewed in isolation, The Thinker has come to represent something far more universal – humanity's ceaseless struggle to understand our existence, our place in the cosmos, the fundamental truths that govern our reality.In this light, the sculpture's famous pose takes on myriad potential interpretations. Is the figure deep in spiritual or philosophical contemplation? Grappling with issues of ethics or morality? Immersed in artistic or scientific inquiry? By refraining from providing a clear narrative context, Rodin has invested hiscreation with an open-endedness that allows each viewer to ascribe their own personal meaning and emotional significance.This ambiguity, combined with the sculpture's sheer visual potency, has ensured its status as a true cultural icon. Like few other works of art, The Thinker has become instantly recognizable across cultures, continents, and generations. It graces book covers, movies, advertisements – injecting a sense of intellectual heft into any context in which it appears. In this regard, the sculpture has surpassed the confines of the traditional art world to become a ubiquitous symbolic shorthand for deep thought itself.Yet The Thinker's undeniable pop culture cachet in no way diminishes its stature as a critical anchor point in the evolution of modern sculpture. Rodin's uncompromising commitment to realism, his unprecedented daring in eschewing idealized classical proportions and smoothed surfaces, his primacy of emotional expressiveness over technical perfection – all of these groundbreaking artistic choices reached their apex in The Thinker.By merging acute naturalistic observation with an emblematic symbolic narrative, Rodin single-handedly bridged the divide between the neoclassical traditions that dominated19th century sculpture and the radical avant-garde movements soon to come. The visceral power of The Thinker's dynamic modeling, the juxtaposition of rough and refined textures across its craggy surface, the palpable sense of weight and muscularity – all pointed the way forward to the modernist sculpture that would flourish in the 20th century and beyond.So while absorbing the sheer aesthetic splendor of The Thinker is experience enough, its true profundity lies in its ability to catalyze deeper contemplation – about the human condition, about the purpose of art, about the unflagging persistence of mankind's intellectual spirit across eras and civilizations. For in enshrining that most fundamental of human acts – the pursuit of knowledge and understanding – within a spectacular yet emphatically physical vessel, Rodin created something transcendent.The Thinker reminds us that our identity as a species is intertwined with our capacity for abstract reasoning, for asking unanswerable existential questions, for daring to ponder the imponderables of existence. By exalting this most humble of activities – the interior cognitive labor that defines our consciousness – Rodin has fashioned an icon equally emblematicof individual introspection and humanity's collective philosophical journey.And thus, from its perch in the courtyards of museums, from its pedestals in civic plazas, from its ubiquitous appearances across our shared culture, The Thinker stands eternal vigil. It gazes inward while simultaneously beckoning all those who behold it to join in its transcendent reverie – to embrace the intertwined struggles of intellectual enlightenment and artistic expression that fundamentally define the human experience.。

cbam 英语介绍《CBAM: A Comprehensive Introduction to Content-Based Audio Music Retrieval》Introduction:In today's digital age, the field of music retrieval is gaining increasing attention. With the abundance of music available on various platforms and the ease of accessing it, there is a growing need for effective and efficient ways to search, retrieve, and organize music. This is where Content-Based Audio Music (CBAM) retrieval comes into play. In this article, we will provide a comprehensive introduction to CBAM, shedding light on its importance, functionalities, and applications.What is CBAM?Content-Based Audio Music retrieval is a specialized field in computer science that deals with the extraction of meaningful information from audio signals. Unlike other music retrieval techniques that rely on metadata such as song titles or artist names, CBAM focuses on the audio content itself. It aims to analyze and describe the audio signals based on their intrinsic features like tempo, rhythm, melody, and timbre.How does CBAM work?CBAM systems consist of several stages and techniques to accurately retrieve music based on audio content. The key steps in a typical CBAM system include audio signal preprocessing, feature extraction, and similarity matching. Firstly, the audio signal is preprocessed to remove noise and enhance its quality. Then, relevant features are extracted, such as spectral shape features, chroma features, and rhythm patterns. These features help represent the audio content in a more meaningful way. Lastly, similarity matching algorithms are applied to compare the extracted features of the query audio with those in the music database and retrieve similar songs.Applications of CBAM:CBAM has a wide range of applications and is used in various domains. Some notable areas where CBAM is applied include:1. Music recommendation: CBAM-based systems can analyze users’ music preferences by extracting audio features from their listening history and recommend similar songs or artists.2. Music identification: CBAM can be used to identify unknown songs from audio snippets. By comparing the audio features of the snippet with those in the database, CBAM systems can accurately identify the song.3. Music genre classification: CBAM can classify songs into different genres by analyzing their audio content. This is useful in music classification tasks and creating personalized playlists.4. Music transcription: CBAM techniques can be employed to automatically transcribe music from audio signals to symbolic representations, such as sheet music or MIDI files.Conclusion:In conclusion, CBAM is a vital field in music retrieval that focuses on extracting meaningful information from audio signals. Its significance lies in its ability to search, retrieve, and organize music based on audio content, rather than metadata. CBAM has numerous applications, including music recommendation, identification, genre classification, and transcription. As technology and research continue to advance, CBAM is expected to play a pivotal role in enhancing music listening experiences and facilitating music-related tasks.。

做地理等高线模型英语作文600字

做地理等高线模型英语作文600字Creating Contour Models in Geography.The precise representation of terrain elevation in geography is critical for understanding the physical characteristics of the landscape, facilitating land use planning, and supporting various scientific and engineering applications. Contour lines serve as a powerful tool inthis context, providing a graphical depiction of elevation changes across a surface. Creating accurate and visually informative contour models is an essential skill for geographers and other professionals involved in terrain analysis.To construct a contour model, a series of specific elevation points must be identified and connected. These points are typically obtained through field surveys using surveying equipment, such as theodolites or total stations. Alternatively, elevation data can be extracted from digital elevation models (DEMs), which are widely available fromvarious sources.Once the elevation points are collected, contour lines can be interpolated between them. This process involves connecting points of equal elevation, resulting in a series of closed curves that represent different elevation levels. The contour interval, which is the vertical distance between adjacent contour lines, is determined based on the scale and purpose of the model.The manual creation of contour models is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task, especially for large and complex landscapes. However, advancements in computer technology have introduced automated techniques that significantly streamline this process. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software provides a comprehensive set of tools for contour line generation, including interpolation algorithms and visualization capabilities.One of the most commonly used interpolation methods for contouring is the Triangulated Irregular Network (TIN). TIN represents the terrain surface as a network of triangles,with each triangle defined by three elevation points. Contour lines are then generated by intersecting the TINwith horizontal planes at regular intervals.Another interpolation method is Kriging, which utilizes statistical techniques to predict elevation values based on the spatial distribution of known elevation points. Kriging considers the spatial autocorrelation of elevation data, resulting in smoother and more accurate contours comparedto TIN.Regardless of the interpolation method used, the accuracy of contour models heavily depends on the quality and density of the elevation points. Densely spacedelevation points provide a more detailed representation of the terrain, leading to more precise contour lines. However, in areas with limited data availability, interpolation techniques must be employed to fill in gaps and extrapolate elevation values.Contour models are not only valuable for visualizing terrain elevation but also serve as a foundation forvarious spatial analyses. They can be used to calculate slope gradients, identify critical points such as ridges and valleys, and delineate watersheds. Contour models are also essential inputs for hydrological modeling, geomorphological studies, and landform classification.In addition to their scientific and engineering applications, contour models are also widely used in cartography and landscape visualization. They enhance topographic maps by providing a three-dimensional representation of the terrain, making it easier to understand the spatial relationships between different features. Contour models are also incorporated into virtual reality environments and 3D landscape visualizations, offering immersive experiences that facilitate spatial understanding and decision-making.The creation of contour models in geography is a fundamental skill that enables the accurate representation and analysis of terrain elevation. Utilizing appropriate interpolation techniques and leveraging the capabilities of GIS software, geographers and other professionals cangenerate visually informative and scientifically sound contour models that support a wide range of applications.。
描述长相英语作文

描述长相英语作文Appearance is often the first thing we notice about a person when we meet them. It is a visual representation of an individual's physical characteristics, which can provide insights into their personality, lifestyle, and cultural background. Describing someone's appearance can be a fascinating and complex task, as it involves capturing the unique blend of features that make each person distinct.One of the most striking aspects of a person's appearance is their facial features. The shape of the face, the size and placement of the eyes, the contour of the nose, and the fullness of the lips all contribute to an individual's overall look. Some people may have delicate, refined features, while others may have more pronounced or angular facial characteristics. The color and texture of the skin, as well as the presence of freckles, moles, or other blemishes, can also play a significant role in shaping a person's appearance.Beyond the face, the physical build and stature of an individual can be equally telling. Is the person tall or short, slender or muscular, graceful or awkward in their movements? The way a person carriesthemselves, their posture, and the way they dress can all provide clues about their personality and lifestyle. Some may exude a sense of confidence and poise, while others may appear more reserved or self-conscious.Hair is another important aspect of physical appearance. The color, length, texture, and style of a person's hair can convey a wealth of information about their personal preferences, cultural background, and even their mood or emotional state. A person with long, flowing locks may project a more bohemian or artistic vibe, while someone with a closely cropped, military-style haircut may give the impression of being more disciplined and organized.The way a person dresses can also significantly influence their overall appearance. Clothing choices can reflect an individual's sense of style, their social status, or their cultural affiliations. A person in a well-tailored suit may convey a sense of professionalism and authority, while someone in casual, comfortable attire may appear more relaxed and approachable.Accessories, such as jewelry, eyewear, or footwear, can also play a role in shaping a person's appearance. These items can serve as extensions of an individual's personality, expressing their creativity, their values, or their sense of individuality.Ultimately, describing a person's appearance is a multifaceted endeavor that requires keen observation and an understanding of the nuances that make each individual unique. It is not simply a matter of listing physical characteristics, but rather a holistic exploration of how those characteristics come together to create a distinct and memorable visual representation of the person.When describing someone's appearance, it is important to be objective and avoid making assumptions or judgments. Instead, focus on accurately and vividly capturing the details that make the person stand out. Pay attention to the subtle interplay of features, the way they carry themselves, and the overall impression they convey.By describing appearance in a thoughtful and insightful way, we can gain a deeper understanding of the person we are observing. We can learn about their cultural background, their personal style, and even their emotional state. This knowledge can then inform our interactions and help us communicate more effectively with the individual.In conclusion, describing appearance is a complex and fascinating task that requires a keen eye for detail and a willingness to look beyond the surface. By carefully observing and articulating the unique blend of physical characteristics that make each persondistinct, we can gain valuable insights into the human experience and foster a greater appreciation for the diversity that exists in the world around us.。
cad中表示下沉抬高的英语符号

cad中表示下沉抬高的英语符号In CAD (Computer-Aided Design), the elevation changesof objects, such as sinks, steps, or other features that require a different height from the surrounding surface,are typically represented using specific symbols or notations. These notations help designers and engineers communicate the necessary dimensions and changes inelevation effectively.However, it's important to note that the exact symbols and notations used for elevation changes can vary depending on the CAD software being used, as well as the industry standards or company preferences. Below are some common methods used to represent elevation changes in CAD drawings:1. Hatches or Patterns:Hatches or patterns are often used to indicate areas that have a different elevation. For example, a hatchedarea could represent a step or a depression in the ground.The hatch pattern itself can vary, but it typically differs from the surrounding area to clearly indicate the change in elevation.2. Elevation Annotations:Elevation annotations are text-based notations that indicate the specific height or depth of a feature. These annotations are typically placed next to or adjacent to the feature they represent, and they provide a numerical value that specifies the elevation relative to a reference point.3. 3D Modeling:In 3D CAD software, elevation changes can be represented directly through the creation of 3D models. By manipulating the geometry of objects, designers can create steps, slopes, or any other type of elevation change. This approach provides a more visual representation of the elevation changes and allows for more precise measurements and analysis.4. Contour Lines:Contour lines are used to represent changes in elevation on a 2D plan view. These lines connect points of equal elevation, creating a visual representation of the terrain or surface. By analyzing the spacing and direction of contour lines, one can understand the shape and slope of the surface.5. Arrows or Symbols:Sometimes, simple arrows or symbols are used to indicate elevation changes. For example, an arrow pointing upward could indicate a rise or step up, while an arrow pointing downward could indicate a sink or step down. These symbols are typically accompanied by numerical values or dimensions to provide more information about the change in elevation.It's worth mentioning that CAD software often provides tools and features specifically designed for representing elevation changes. These tools may include commands forcreating steps, ramps, or other elevation-related features, as well as options for customizing the appearance and notation of these features in the drawing.It's also important to consult the documentation or user manual of the CAD software you are using to understand the specific symbols, notations, and tools available for representing elevation changes.

It is a feeling that is both exhilarating and terrifying, a reminder of the vast expanse of possibility that lies beyond the boundaries of our comfortable existences.Yet, at the same time, I am struck by the fleeting nature of this moment of freedom. The horses are not standing still, butrather caught in a moment of frenzied motion that is both beautiful and transient. It is a reminder that true freedom is not a permanent state, but rather a fleeting glimpse of something greater – a moment to be savored and cherished before it inevitably slips away.In this sense, "Galloping Horses" is a powerful metaphor for the human condition – a constant struggle between the desire for freedom and the constraints of reality, a never-ending journey towards a goal that is always just out of reach. It is a reminder that true freedom is not something that can be possessed or attained, but rather something that must be constantly pursued and cherished in the fleeting moments when it presents itself.As a student, I am grateful for the opportunity to study and appreciate works of art like "Galloping Horses." It is a reminder of the power of creativity and imagination to transcend the boundaries of the physical world and tap into something deeper and more profound.In the end, Xu Beihong's masterpiece is not merely a painting of horses – it is a celebration of life itself, in all its raw, unbridled glory. It is a testament to the enduring power of art toinspire, challenge, and ultimately elevate the human spirit. And for that, I am forever grateful.。

Introduction:Portraiture, a timeless art form, transcends cultural boundaries and speaks a universal language. Through thelens of a camera or the strokes of a brush, we endeavor to capture the essence of humanity. In this essay, we delveinto the intricacies of portraiture and explore its significance in conveying emotions, stories, and identities.Capturing the Soul:A portrait is more than a mere representation ofphysical features; it is a window into the soul of the subject. Each line, each contour, and each expression tells a story. Take, for instance, the Mona Lisa, her enigmatic smile inviting endless speculation and interpretation.Portraits have the power to evoke emotions, stir memories, and provoke introspection.Communication Beyond Words:In a world inundated with digital communication,portraits serve as a reminder of the power of nonverbal communication. A single glance, a subtle gesture, or a fleeting expression can convey a myriad of emotions that words often fail to articulate. Through portraiture, we engage in a silent dialogue, forging connections that transcend linguistic barriers.Exploring Identity:Identity is a complex tapestry woven from various threads—cultural, social, and personal. Portraits serve as mirrors reflecting the multifaceted nature of identity. Whether it is a formal studio portrait or a candid snapshot, each image captures a moment in time, a fragment of the subject's identity frozen for eternity.Celebrating Diversity:In an increasingly globalized world, portraiture celebrates the rich tapestry of human diversity. From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the sun-kissed shores of Rio de Janeiro, each portrait encapsulates the unique cultural heritage and individual experiences of its subjects. Through portraiture, we embrace the beauty of difference and celebrate the universal bonds that unite us all.Challenging Stereotypes:Portraits have the power to challenge stereotypes and defy societal norms. By capturing individuals from marginalized communities and underrepresented groups, photographers and artists shed light on the rich diversity of human experiences. Through their lens, they amplify voices that have long been silenced, fostering empathy and understanding.Preserving Memories:As time marches relentlessly forward, portraits serve as timeless mementos, preserving cherished memories for future generations. Whether it is a family portrait displayed proudly above the mantelpiece or a faded photograph tucked away in a forgotten album, each image encapsulates a moment of joy, sorrow, or triumph.Conclusion:In conclusion, portraiture is much more than a mere depiction of physical likeness; it is a powerful medium for storytelling, self-expression, and connection. Through the lens of a camera or the stroke of a brush, we immortalize moments, capture emotions, and celebrate the rich tapestry of humanity. In a world often divided by differences, portraiture serves as a reminder of our shared humanity, bridging the gap between cultures, generations, and ideologies.。

CONTOUR-BASED MELODY REPRESENTATION:AN ANALYTICAL STUDY Sumantra Dutta Roy,Preeti Rao and Ameya S.GalindeDepartment of Electrical Engineering,IIT Bombay,Powai,Mumbai-400076.{sumantra,prao,ameya}@ee.iitb.ac.inABSTRACTIn this paper,we identify parameters crucial to the performance of a Query By Humming(QBH) system,and present an analytical approach to de-termining optimal values of such parameters.Ex-isting systems use heuristically chosen parameters -our analytical results are in accordance with such values.We present results of experimentation with simulated data,as well as an actual melody database of a QBH system.1.INTRODUCTIONQuery by Humming(hereafter,QBH)has emerged as an important area of research in audio-based search engines,and building efficient Human-Computer Interfaces(HCI)[1],[2],[3],[4],[5], [6],[7].Thus far,related work in the area has only considered the use of a3-,5-or7-level pitch contour[8],[6],[7],[9].-this is usually based on empirical studies.To the best of our knowl-edge,there has been no attempt to derive such an estimate using analytical methods.This paper presents an analytical study of QBH systems.We develop a new coefficient to evaluate the perfor-mance of a QBH system.Our results of exper-iments with analytical models,as well as an ac-tual melody database give results consistent with those in existing literature.While this paper con-siders the special case of uniform tune lengths,our current research involves extending this to a Dy-namic Programming-based framework to handle the most general case.2.THE REPRESENTATION SCHEME We assume all notes in a musical piece lie only on a quantized set of absolute pitch values(in Hz). The ratio of any two adjacent pitch values is21/12. The interval between two such adjacent values is a ‘semitone’,and an ensemble of12such pitch values or notes is an‘octave’[3].Without loss of gener-ality,we may assume a logarithmic scale for such notes with the least count on this scale correspond-ing to a semitone.(This ensures equal distances along the logarithmic scale,corresponding to any two adjacent semitones)Our representation of a user query or any melody consists of a sequence of numbers where each number signifies the‘dis-tance’between the current note and the previous note,or more precisely,the number of semitones lying in between these two adjacent notes in the musical piece[8].As an example,we can consider a(fairly real-istic)case where a note will be no more than an octave apart from its previous note i.e.,it can ei-ther ascend by a maximum of1octave(+12semi-tones)or descend by a maximum of1octave(-12 semitones).This is quite a reasonable assumption, since most musical pieces proceed with a steady rise or fall of notes and even a pitch change of one octave between adjacent notes is rarely encoun-tered.We may represent this span of relative notes by the set[−12,+12].For a casual singer’s notes sung slightly off-key,we approximate the corre-sponding relative note to the closest one on our scale.As an illustrative example,let us consider the following sequence of4notes(all notes lying in the same octave)in Western music notation(all notes in the same scale,say Scale C Major):[MiSo Fa Ti].In our notation,this is[+3-2+6]. Such a representation makes a particular melodic contour invariant to pitch transpositions.Kageyama et al.[1]and Ghias et al.[2]propose the use of static heuristic thresholds for splitting the melodic contour into the desired number of lev-els.Sonoda et al.[9]propose the use of dynamic determination of thresholds.In their method,they determine the thresholds based on the histograms for the relative pitch values,to get a3-level con-tour.While this has the advantage of being opti-mal for a given set of songs,it is highly unlikely that the number of songs in a database will remain constant over a period of time.The thresholds, and hence the entire representation of a song may change with the addition of even a single song to the database.This is costly operation in terms of time(even if done off-line)and hence,not a de-sirable property.Kim et al.consider empirical evidence to decide on choosing the number of lev-els of quantization,k.However,to the best of our knowledge,no existing approach considers an an-alytical approach to determining the performance of a QBH system,or the number of optimum num-ber of levels,for instance.With a view to reduce the number of parameters,we adopt a uniform quantization scheme tofind out the optimal value of k,in our analysis.2.1.Statement of the ProblemFor our analysis,we consider a range of relative notes R.We further assume that thefinest level of quantization(with each mark specifying a rel-ative note)will give rise to N relative notes,ly-ing between two limits r0and r N,respectively1. Given a N−level quantization,we wish to divide this range into k intervals(using k−1markers between r0and r N)uniformly-The aim is tofind an optimal value for k.The range of possible val-ues of k is1and N.Two desirable requirements governing the choice of a suitable value of k are: 1The conversion between the two discrete scales[r,r N]and[r−N/2,rN/2]is a straightforward linear and invertiblefunction.Throughout this paper,we use the two inter-changeably.•Fidelity:a desirable requirement is to havea close match between the hummed contour,and a close one from the database.A desir-able requirement is to have a unique repre-sentation for each song in the database.•Robust Matching:a strategy should ideallyhave adequate robustness to cater to differ-ent untrained singers,who may occasionallygo off-key.The task at hand is tofind this optimal value of k, as described above.Clearly,these are contradic-tory requirements.A large value of k will ensure that the query melodic contour can be matched with greater precision to one in the database,thus reducing chances of a false match.However,the resultant error-resilience reduces,and vice versa.In view of these contradictory requirements, we propose a new function,a minimum of which will result in an optimal value of k.We define the Demerit Coefficient M D(k,µ)for a Database of songs D,as follows:M D(k,µ) =µF D(k)+(1−µ)R D(k)(1) Here,F D(k)and R D(k)represent the Fidelity and Robust-Match functions,respectively,which we define below.µis an arbitrary scalar coeffi-cient which specifies the required relative percent-age of the two constituent terms in the expres-sion for M D(k,µ).The task at hand is tofind argmin k M D(k,µ)i.e.,that value of k for which M D(k,µ)achieves a minimum value.We define l k as the‘length’of an interval along the relative note axis,as follows:l k = (r N−r0)/k ,where the notation denotes the largest integer smaller than the number.In the following sections,we define F D(k)and R D(k).2.2.The Fidelity Term F D(k)We define the Fidelity Term F D(k)as follows:F D(k) =1F D(k)[∀x[x−l k(x div l k)]2p D[x]]1/2(2) Here,the summation is over all relative notes x in the songs in the given database D,(div denotes(a)(b)Figure1:Distribution of relative notes:p D[·]for (a)our database,and(b)an MIT database(taken from[8])integer division i.e.,the quotient)and p D[x]de-notes the discrete probability of a particular rela-tive note x.This is a characteristic of the partic-ular database,and depends its constituent songs. Figure1show samples of such curves from our database of songs,as well as an MIT database[8].F D(k)is a normalizing factor.We may take this as l k−1for example,or simply the maximum of the terms being summed up.Having k intervals implies that for a given rel-ative note x,all relative notes y lying in the dis-crete interval l k(x div l k)≤y<l k(x div l k+1) would be characterized by a point,which we con-sider(without loss of generality)as being the left limit of the interval.Thus,F D(k)is a measure of the average deviation of relative notes which would get classified by the k-level system as being in it’s corresponding interval.For a system to have greaterfidelity of a perfectly-sung melody to one stored in the database,the F D(k)term should be small.Otherwise,other melodies with each corre-sponding relative note lying in the same interval as the target song,would get wrongly identified as the one in question.We note that the above defi-nition for F D(k)is quite restrictive in the sense of seeking a match between two melodic contours of the same length.Section4looks at extensions of this approach to deal with the most general case.2.3.The Robust-Match Term R D(k)We define the Robust-match term R D(k)as fol-lows:R D(k) =1R D(k)∀x[y(y−x)2p U x[y]]1/2p D[x](3) The outer summation is over all relative notes xFigure2:The probability mass function p U x[y]for relative notes in our database(The Robust Match Function R D(k),Section2.3)in the songs in the given database D.The sum-mation for y is over all relative notes which are not in the same interval as the relative note x i.e., {r0≤y<l k(x div l k)}∪{l k(x div l k+1)≤y≤r N}.Here,R D(k)is the normalization factor. We may take this to be R−l k(=r N−r0−l k),or simply the maximum of the terms being summed(a)(b)Figure3:The optimal k:A plot of|F D(k)−R D(k)|vs.k(a)analytical simulation:p D[·]and p U x[·]as Gaussians(Section3.1);and(b)Actual database statistics(Section3.2)up.Here,p U x[·]is the one-dimensional probability mass function of all user query relative notes for a given relative note x.(Figure2shows the prob-ability mass function of p U x[·]for different relative notes x,in our database)It is important to note that while the Fidelity term F D(k)depends only on the distribution of relative notes of songs in a given database D,R D(k)depends on the statistics of the distribution of typical user queries,as well. The motivation behind taking p U x[·]into account is the fact that casual users often go off-key when the change in notes is quite drastic.The above formulation handles such an observation as statis-tics,and uses it to advantage infinding a suitable value of k(our ultimate objective).Clearly,a high value of F D(k)would imply more robustness of the matching procedure to notes sung off-key by a ca-sual user.3.EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS ANDDISCUSSIONWe approach the problem using methods of varia-tional calculus.We need the value of k for which the Demerit Coefficient is minimum for a given database D of songs(Equation1).We differenti-ate this with respect to the two variables k andµ, and set these to zero.We canfind out the value of k from the partial differentiation with respect to µ.We evaluate|F D(k)−R D(k)|for varying values of k,and check for minima close to zero.Further, we canfind the optimal value ofµby numerical differentiation.We evaluate|δM D(k,µ)δk|forδk=1 (the smallest possible discrete change in k),and find out the value ofµ,for which|δM D(k,µ)|is minimum.This is the required value ofµ.For our experimentation,we have considered both the nor-malization factorsF D(k)andR D(k)as the max-imum term in the respective summations.A sys-tem designer may like to have a control over the relative proportion of F D(k)and R D(k)for a par-ticular database.In our formulation,theflexibil-ity in choosing the normalization factors takes this desirable aspect into account.3.1.Studies with Representative Models An examination of Figure1reveals that it is rea-sonable to use a Gaussian to approximate p D[·], the distribution of relative notes for songs in a database.Figure2shows the function for actual values corresponding to our song database.Sec-tion2.3gives the motivation for having a p U x[·] modeling.Casual users often tend to go more off-key with increasing values of relative notes,irre-spective of the direction of change.Owing to these reasons,we model p U x[·]as a Gaussian with stan-dard deviation proportional to x.Choosing p D[·] to be a Gaussian close to our actual p D[·]curve (Figure1(a)),we obtain the optimal values of theFigure4:Variation of the optimal k for differentσvalues:simulation,with p D[·]assumed to be a Gaussian.parameters k andµas6and0.01.Figure3(a) shows a plot|F D(k)−R D(k)|for varying valuesof k.The portions offlatness in the curve are dueto the nature of thefloor function in l k and hence,|F D(k)−R D(k)|as well.A set of analytical models permits one to ex-periment by changing various system parameters. For example,we have varied the variance of thep D[·]Gaussian to test its effect on the optimal k value.Figure4shows this variation.3.2.Studies with Data from an Actual Melody Retrieval SystemWe have experimented with a melody database[6], [7]of69Hindifilm song phrases,with an averageof about10notes in each,sung by one reference singer and3casual singers.Figure3(b)shows the corresponding|F D(k)−R D(k)|curve for different values of k.In this case,the optimum correspondsto k=5andµ=0.01.4.CONCLUSIONSIn this paper,we propose a new analytical ap-proach for obtaining important parameters of a QBH system.We identify these,and present an analytical study of the performance of the QBH systems with respect to these parameters.Ex-isting systems choose these parameters heuristi-cally-our results are in accordance with these. We present results of experimentation with simu-lated data,as well as an actual melody database of a QBH system.Future work includes extending the idea of the Fidelity term F D(k)to deal with varying query lengths in a Dynamic Programming-based framework.REFERENCES[1]T.Kageyama,K.Mochiezuki,andY.Takashima,“Melody Retrieval with Humming,”in Proc.ICMC,1993,pp.349–351.[2]A.Ghias,J.Logan,D.Chamberlin,and B.C.Smith,“Query By Humming-Musical Infor-mation Retrieval in an Audio Database,”in Proc.ACM Multimedia,1995.[3]R.J.McNab,L.A.Smith,I.H.Witten,C.L.Henderson,and S.J.Sunningham,“Toward the Digital Music Library:Tune Retrieval from Acoustic Input,”in Proc.ACM Digital Libraries,1996.[4]Midilib,http://www-mmdb.iai.unibonn.de/forschungprojekte/ midilib/english.[5]Tuneserver,http://tuneserver.de.[6]M.Anand Raju and P.Rao,“Towards anAutomatic Melody Retrieval System,”in Proc.National Conference on Communica-tions(NCC),2002.[7]M.Anand Raju,B.Sundaram,and P.Rao,“TANSEN:A Query-By-Humming based Mu-sic Retrieval System,”in Proc.National Con-ference on Communications(NCC),2003.
