14-4 Linear Scaling (u呇Y)

[english][all]

(請注意：中文版本並未隨英文版本同步更新！)

在不切音符的情況下，最簡單的辨識方法，就是線性伸縮（Linear Scaling），流程如下：

1. 使用內差法，將使用者輸入的音高向量進行線性拉長或壓縮，例如伸縮比例可以是從 0.5 到 2.0，跳距是 0.1，共生出 16 個版本。
2. 將這16個版本和資料庫中的每一首歌曲進行比對，得到16個距離，其中的最小值，即是輸入向量和此首歌的距離。
3. 對所有資料庫歌曲進行比對，最短距離者，即是使用者所唱的歌。

下面是一個線性伸縮的示意圖，共伸縮五次，當伸縮比例是 1.5 時，可以達到最佳的比對效果：

在實做上，還有下列細節要考慮：

1. 內差法的選用：可以使用簡單的線性內差。
2. 距離的選擇：通常我們使用 L₁ norm，也就是計算每個對應元素絕對差值的和，或是使用 L₂ norm，又稱為歐基理德距離，也就是計算每個對應元素差值的平方和，再開平方，但在實做上，我們通常只在比較距離的大小，因此常常省略開平方的動作，以節省計算。
   Hint

   L_p norm of vectors x and y = [S|x_i-y_i|^p]^1/p

3. 距離的正規化：我們會將總距離除以點數，得到正規化的距離，以消除因伸縮造成點數不同所帶來的影響。
4. 音高的校正：每一個人唱歌的key不同（通常女生的key比較高，男生的key比較低），因此在進行比對之前，要先進行校正。一般而言，校正的目的是要達到兩個向量之間距離的最小值，因此對於不同的距離計算方式，我們就有不同的校正法則：
   • 若使用 L₁ norm，我們可以採用「中位數校正」，亦即將輸入向量的中位數校正成對應資料庫向量的中位數。
   • 若使用 L₂ norm，我們可以採用「平均值校正」，亦即將輸入向量的平均值校正成對應資料庫向量的平均值。
5. 對於休止符的處理：為了保持音符的特性，我們通常會將休止符（包含使用者的輸入和資料庫的歌曲）代換成前一個音。

線性伸縮用於旋律辨識的特性，可以說明如下：

• 如果使用者哼唱的歌聲不是忽快忽慢，那麼線性伸縮都可以達到不錯的辨識效果。
• 線性伸縮可以使用「一次到位」的音高校正，所以在計算上比較簡單。（相對而言，DTW 無法使用「一次到位」的音高校正，所以在計算上會比較繁複。）

以下是使用真實音高向量的範例：

Hint

請注意，為了節省計算，上述範例中 linScalingMex 的距離計算，是使用 L₂ norm 的平方，而不是使用 L₂ norm。所以最後在畫圖前，我們還要進行開平方，以便得到正確的 L₂ norm。
