Class Induction

java.lang.Object

be.tarsos.dsp.beatroot.Induction

public class Induction
extends java.lang.Object

Performs tempo induction by finding clusters of similar inter-onset intervals (IOIs), ranking them according to the number of intervals and relationships between them, and returning a set of tempo hypotheses for initialising the beat tracking agents.

Method Detail

beatInduction

public static AgentList beatInduction(EventList events)

Performs tempo induction (see JNMR 2001 paper by Simon Dixon for details).

Parameters:

events - The onsets (or other events) from which the tempo is induced

Returns:

A list of beat tracking agents, where each is initialised with one of the top tempo hypotheses but no beats

newInduction

public static void newInduction(EventList events)

An alternative (incomplete) tempo induction method (not used). Uses integer (millisecond) resolution.

Parameters:

events - The events on which tempo induction is performed
