Abstract

As for as the Human Computer Interactions (HCI) is concerned, there is broad range of applications in the area of research in respective of Automatic Melakarta Raaga Identification in music. The pattern of identification is the main object for which, the basic mathematical tool is utilized. On verification, it is observed that no model is proved consistently and effectively to be predicted in its classification. This paper is, therefore, introduces a procedure for Raaga Identification with the help of Hidden Markov Models (HMM) which is rather an appropriate approach in identifying Melakarta Raagas. This proposed approach is based on the standard speech recognition technology by using Hidden continuous Markov Model. Data is collected from the existing data base for training and testing of the method with due design process relating to Melakarta Raagas. Similarly, to solve the problem of automatic identification of raagas, a suitable approach from the existing database is presented. The system, particularly, this model is based on a Hidden Markov Model enhanced with Pakad string matching algorithm. The entire system is built on top of an automatic note transcriptor. At the end, detailed elucidations of the experiments are given. It clearly indicates the effectiveness and applicability of this method with its intrinsic value and significance.
