Tilt functions

Functions for:

EST_SMatrix()

EST_SMatrix(int m, int n)

size constructor

EST_SMatrix()

EST_SMatrix(EST_SMatrix &a)

copy constructor

EST_SMatrix()

EST_SMatrix(EST_SMatrix &a, int b)

CHECK - what does this do???

EST_SMatrix()

EST_SMatrix()

default constructor

default_rfc_params()

void default_rfc_params(EST_Features &op)

Fill op with sensible default parameters for RFC analysis

rfc_analysis()

void rfc_analysis(EST_Track &fz, EST_Relation &event_list, EST_Features &op)

Produce a set of RFC parameterized events given approximate event boundaries and a smoothed F0 contour. See the section called Producing an RFC representation from an utterance's events and F0 contour for a description of this process.

Parameters
f0

Smoothed continuous F0 contour. An error will occur if any unvoiced regions are detected in the contour. Use the function smoooth_pda to smooth and interpolate a normal contour.

ev_list

list of events, each containing approximate start and end times of the events. On completion each event in this list will have a set of RFC parameters.

op

parameters used to control analysis process.

tilt_analysis()

void tilt_analysis(EST_Track &fz, EST_Relation &event_list, EST_Features &op)

Fill op with sensible default parameters for RFC analysis

fill_rise_fall_values()

void fill_rise_fall_values(EST_Track &fz, float amp, float start_f0)

Fill op with sensible default parameters for RFC analysis

rfc_synthesis()

void rfc_synthesis(EST_Track &f0, EST_Relation &ev_list, float f_shift, int no_conn)

Generate an F0 contour given a list RFC events.

Parameters
f0

Generated F0 contour

ev_list

list of events, each containing a set of RFC parameters

f_shift

frame shift in seconds of the generated contour

no_conn

Do not join events with straight lines if set to 1

tilt_synthesis()

void tilt_synthesis(EST_Track &track, EST_Relation &ev_list, float f_shift, int no_conn)

Generate an F0 contour given a list Tilt events.

This function simply calls \Ref{tilt_to_rfc} followed by \Ref{rfc_synthesis}.

Parameters
f0

Generated F0 contour

ev_list

list of events, each containing a set of Tilt parameters

f_shift

frame shift in seconds of the generated contour

no_conn

Do not join events with straight lines if set to 1

tilt_to_rfc()

void tilt_to_rfc(EST_Features &tilt, EST_Features &rfc)

Convert a single set of local tilt parameters to local RFC parameters. amp

Parameters
tilt

input tilt paramaters, named <parameter>amp</parameter>, <parameter>dur</parameter> and <parameter>tilt</parameter>

rfc

output RFC parameters, name <parameter>rise_amp</parameter>, <parameter>fall_amp</parameter>, <parameter>rise_dur</parameter> and <parameter>fall_dur</parameter>

rfc_to_tilt()

void rfc_to_tilt(EST_Features &rfc, EST_Features &tilt)

Convert a single set of local RFC parameters to local tilt parameters. See the section called RFC to F0 Synthesis for a description of how this is performed.

Parameters
rfc

input RFC parameters, named <parameter> rise_amp</parameter>, <parameter>fall_amp</parameter>, <parameter>rise_dur</parameter> and<parameter> fall_dur</parameter>

tilt

output tilt paramaters, named <parameter>amp</parameter>, <parameter>dur</parameter> and <parameter>tilt</parameter>

tilt_to_rfc()

void tilt_to_rfc(EST_Relation &ev_tilt)

For each tilt events in ev_tilt, produce a set of RFC parameters. The tilt parameters are stored as the following features in the event:

  • tilt.amp
  • tilt.dur
  • tilt.tilt

A set of features with the following names are created:

  • rfc.rise_amp
  • rfc.rise_dur
  • rfc.fall_amp
  • rfc.fall_dur

The original tilt features are not deleted.

rfc_to_tilt()

void rfc_to_tilt(EST_Relation &ev_rfc)

For each tilt events in ev_rfc, produce a set of Tiltparameters. The RFC parameters are stored as the following features in the event:

  • rfc.rise_amp
  • rfc.rise_dur
  • rfc.fall_amp
  • rfc.fall_dur

A set of features with the following names are created:

  • tilt.amp
  • tilt.dur
  • tilt.tilt

The original RFC features are not deleted.
