In addition, it strives to provide a logical and objective explanation of Indian classical musicians? cognitive experience. Issues of relevance in this regard include the rich, mellifluous sound; the undulation of the loudness; the somewhat cyclical variation of the timbre, which is strongly related to these undulations; and the occasional perception of virtual notes to which no strings are tuned. The book analyses the materials used in the tanpura, the instrument?s simple structure, the intricacies of the lower bridge, and the theory of string vibration with variable string length. Cognitive experiments to provide the basis for perceptual quality assessment, as well as a methodology for ranking, are described. This is followed by acoustic analyses, both temporal and spectral, for sounds produced by male and female tanpuras, for each individual string and the combined one. An important aspect related to the naturalness of perceived sound, namely the intrinsically associated random perturbations, is also discussed. The apparent irregularities perceived in the acoustic signal produced by the tanpura reveal the importance of examining the signal from the perspective of non-linear analysis, an aspect that is also covered in the book. Given its scope, the book will appeal to students and researchers in the fields of music acoustics, artificial intelligence, and cognitive science, as well as musicians and musicologists around the world. 410 0$aSignals and Communication Technology,$x1860-4862 606 $aSignal processing 606 $aImage processing 606 $aSpeech processing systems 606 $aAcoustics 606 $aMathematics 606 $aAcoustical engineering 606 $aSignal, Image and Speech Processing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24051 606 $aAcoustics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21069 606 $aMathematics in Music$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M33000 606 $aEngineering Acoustics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T16000 615 0$aSignal processing. 615 0$aImage processing. 615 0$aSpeech processing systems. 615 0$aAcoustics. 615 0$aMathematics. 615 0$aAcoustical engineering. 615 14$aSignal, Image and Speech Processing. 615 24$aAcoustics. 615 24$aMathematics in Music. 615 24$aEngineering Acoustics. 676 $a787.67 700 $aDatta$b Asoke Kumar$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0941416 702 $aSengupta$b Ranjan$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aBanerjee$b Kaushik$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aGhosh$b Dipak$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910350312003321 996 $aAcoustical Analysis of the Tanpura$92123448 997 $aUNINA
