A system for musical instrument recognition is introduced. In contrast to most existing systems, it can identify a solo instrument even in the presence of an accompanying keyboard instrument or orchestra. To enable recognition in the presence of a highly polyphonic background, we use features based solely on the partials of the target tone. The approach is based on the assumption that it is possible to extract the most prominent fundamental frequency and the corresponding harmonic overtone…

Instrument recognition in polyphonic music based on automatic taxonomies
TLDR
This study focuses on a single music genre but combines a variety of instruments among which are percussion and singing voice, and obtains a taxonomy of musical ensembles which is used to efficiently classify possible combinations of instruments played simultaneously.

TLDR
It is shown that it is possible to recognize up to 4 instruments playing concurrently in polyphonic music excerpted from commercial recordings by exploiting some cues on the common structures of musical ensembles.
MUSICAL INSTRUMENT IDENTIFICATION IN CONTINUOUS RECORDINGS
TLDR
This work introduces an instrument recognition process in solo recordings of a set of instruments, which yields a high recognition rate and demonstrates that the real-time solo classifier can also be useful for instrument recognition in duet performances, and improved using simple “source reduction”.
Chinese folk musical instruments recognition in polyphonic music
TLDR
Two methods are used to mainly deal with the task of dominant instrument identification in music of accompanied concertos, respectively song-level method and segment-level one; when dealing with 14 instruments of 4 Chinese folk instrument families, the accuracy of two methods are 85% and 89% respectively.
Automatic Instrument Recognition in a Polyphonic Mixture Using Sparse Representations
In this paper, a method to address the automatic instrument recognition in polyphonic music is introduced. It is based on the decomposition of the music signal with instrument-specific harmonic…
Musical instrument recognition in polytimbral polyphonic music audio signals
TLDR
An overview of the state of current research in recognition of musical instruments in complex audio signals, with observations and suggestions for further research, including reflections on the prevalence of the use of personal music databases and the resultant issue of comparing the performance of different instrument recognition algorithms.
Feature Analysis and Classification of Classical Musical Instruments: An Empirical Study
We present an empirical study on classical music instrument classification. A methodology with feature extraction and evaluation is proposed and assessed with a number of experiments, whose final…
Instrogram: A New Musical Instrument Recognition Technique Without Using Onset Detection NOR F0 Estimation
TLDR
A new technique for recognizing musical instruments in polyphonic music that calculates the temporal trajectory of instrument existence probabilities for every possible F0, and the results are visualized with a spectrogram-like graphical representation called instrogram.
Computer Models for Musical Instrument Identification
TLDR
The main thrust of this thesis is to propose a coherent and unified approach to the musical instrument identification problem, and it is oriented towards the development of algorithms that can be used in Music Information Retrieval frameworks.
Localization, Characterization and Recognition of Singing Voices
TLDR
A set of novel features computed on the temporal variations of the fundamental frequency of the sung melody, which capture long-term information related to the intonation of the singers, which is relevant to the style and the technique of the singer.

TLDR
This work incorporates ideas from missing feature theory into a GMM classifier, and frequency regions that are dominated by energy from an interfering tone are marked as unreliable and excluded from the classification process.
Musical instrument identification based on F0-dependent multivariate normal distribution
TLDR
This paper presents a method using an F0-dependent multivariate normal distribution of which mean is represented by a function of fundamental frequency (FO), which represents the pitch dependency of each feature, while the F1-normalized covariance represents the non-pitch dependency.

Feature dependence in the automatic identification of musical woodwind instruments.
TLDR
Comparison to a human perception experiment with sounds produced by the same instruments indicates that, under these conditions, computers do as well as humans in identifying woodwind instruments.
Musical sound source identification based on frequency com-ponent adaptation
TLDR

Sound-source recognition: a theory and computational model
TLDR
A computer model of the recognition process is developed that is capable of “listening” to a recording of a musical instrument and classifying the instrument as one of 25 possibilities, based on current models of signal processing in the human auditory system.

TLDR
This paper proposes the following three extensions to the previous PreFEst to make it more adaptive and flexible: introducing multiple harmonic-structure tone models, estimating the shape oftone models, and introducing a prior distribution of its shape and F/sub 0/ estimates.
