Human has average pitch-level when speak naturally. That is 'Habitual pitch level'. However, if noise added at speech, the pitch-wave is changed irregularly. We can estimate noise level of speech by using this point. This paper calculates energy level of the input speech, pitch period from of above limited energy level by NAMDF (Normalized Average Magnitude Difference Function) method, after cut each frame by pitch period unit, and propose a method that estimate noise level through closed pitch of input speech.

It is well known that tire tread pattern has much influence on the tire pattern noise. The paper describes the method of pattern noise reduction by using the pitch sequence, both on the smooth asphalt roads and on the trenched concrete roads. The noise of tire is classified as either airborne or structure borne noise. Pattern noise through the airborne is considered as a major noise source at high speeds. As block impacting and air pumping by tread patterns are major noise source, tire pattern noise can be greatly influenced by optimal pitch sequence. The goal of this paper is to provide tire engineers with pitch sequence to reduce pattern noise effectively.

Pitch estimation is important in various speech research areas, but when the speech is noisy, accurate pitch estimation with conventional pitch detectors is almost impossible. To solve this problem, we propose a new pitch detection algorithm for noisy speech using a noise whitening technique on the background noise and obtain successful results.

The flow induced noise of the cross-flow fan with uniform/random pitch blades is predicted by computational methods. With the time dependent surface pressure data obtained by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in moving coordinates, the acoustic pressure is predicted by the Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings equation. The positions of the blade noise source are identified through an investigation of the acoustic pressure history induced by one blade, and it is confirmed that the dominant noise source is near the stabilizer. Since the acoustic pressure of the random pitch fan fluctuates according to the blade passin, the dominant BPF noise of the uniform pitch fan is modulated into some reduced discrete noises which have multiples of a 50Hz difference from BPF.

Pitch is a perception related to frequency, one of the psychological aspects or attributes of tones, and an important factor to determine sound quality of sound together with loudness and timber. while a study on pitch has been actively achieved In the part of speech recognition and speech separation, that for analysis and improvement of product sound quality is not yet enough.

본 연구는 Pitch의 변화에 따른 CT 감약계수(CT Number)와 잡음(Noise)의 변화를 정량적으로 측정하고자 자체 제작한 맞춤형 팬텀(Customized Phantom)을 사용하였다. 팬텀을 이용한 영상의 획득을 위해 팬텀 내부는 멸균증류수로 가득 채웠다. 유리관 내부에는 생리식염수와 조영제의 비율을 각각 생리식염수 100%, 400:1, 200:1, 100:1, 50:1로 희석한 용액을 담은 후 영상화하였고, 이때 용액의 희석비율별로 pitch를 0, 0.35, 0.7, 1.05, 1.4의 단계로 나누어 각각 영상화하였다. 희석비율별로 모든 ROI에서 측정한 CT number와 noise 값의 평균이 pitch의 변화에 따라 유의한 차이를 보이는지 검증하고자 일원 배치 분산분석(One-way ANOVA Analysis)과 사후검정을 시행하였다. 실험 결과 각 희석비율별 pitch의 변화에 대한 CT number의 변화는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었지만, noise 값은 pitch의 증가에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 통계적으로도 유의한 차이를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 나선형 영상획득 방식은 pitch에 따라 noise가 유의한 수준으로 달라질 수 있다. 따라서 나선형 영상획득 방식을 적용한 CT 영상의 화질평가 항목과 기준을 설정할 필요가 있을 것이다.

Traditionally, tire made a role of function, which is supporting vehicle load, making brake, transferring, traction etc. So, there are a lot of studying for the tire. especially, tire noise is one of the most important parameter in the car noise. this thesis shows the method how to reduce the tire noise by using the optimal pitch sequence. Because the optimal pitch sequence prevents tire from generating the pure tone while driving the car on the ground.

The tire is considered as one of the Important noise sources having an influence on vehicle's performance. The Pattern noise of a tire is the transmission sound of airborne noise. On smooth asphalt road, Pattern noise is amplified with the velocity. In recent, the study on the reduction of Pattern noise is energetically processed. Pattern noise is strongly related with pitch sequence. To reduce the pattern noise, tire's designer has to randomize the sequence of pitch. The FFT is a traditional method to evaluate the level of the randomization of the pitch sequence, but gives no information on time-varying, instantaneous frequency. In the study, we found that Time-Frequency transform is a useful method to non-stationary signal such as tire noise.

Pitch is a perception related to the subjective frequency that is one of the psychological aspects or attributes of tones. It is also an important factor to determine the sound quality together with loudness and timber. Although the study on pitch has been active in the field of speech communication, but its application to the product sound quality is not yet enough. In this study, the empirical data by Zwicker is made use in the modification of the currently available pitch extraction model based on the place theory. By applying this modified model to various sound samples composed of tonal or banded components, the applicability of the model is suggested. As a demonstration example, the algorithm is used for the sound quality analysis of a product noise having fundamental frequency and harmonics. The result shows that the pitch should be regarded as an important subjective cue in the sound quality analysis.
