Linear prediction on Cent scale for fundamental frequency analysis.

Understanding the fundamental frequency and harmonic content of audio signals is crucial for many applications in music analysis, including music transcription, audio synthesis, and genre identification. This study formulates a signal processing approach combining Linear Prediction (LP) analysis and the Cent scale to accurately characterize the pitch and harmonic structure of the audio signals. Pitch tracking on the LP spectrum in the Cent scale provides more accurate and reliable pitch estimation, especially in the presence of noise or overlapping harmonics.
