Signal Analysis of Hindustani Classical Music
暫譯: 印度古典音樂的信號分析

本書全面概述了印度音樂的基本知識以及相關的信號分析和技術發展。書中首先深入介紹了音樂信號分析及其當前應用，接著詳細討論了在理解印度音樂信號的音樂意義時所涉及的特徵。這些組成部分包括音調、shruti、音階、音高持續時間和穩定性、raga、gharana 以及樂器。本書涵蓋了該領域的各種技術發展，並輔以多個案例研究及其分析。本書為新的音樂研究者提供了關於自動概念在尋找和測試音樂特徵應用中的重要見解。本書主要針對從事印度音樂科學研究的研究生和博士生，以及其他適用概念的音樂類型，同時也是音樂信號處理專業人士和研究者的寶貴資源。
