Every month, JASA highlights four articles from that month's issue. In January's issue, by Olivier Lartillot and collaborators Kristian Nymoen, Guilherme Schmidt C芒mara and Anne Danielsen in the TIME project was chosen as a highlight. Highlighted articles are made accessible for free for a month after publication.
Olivier Lartillot has developed a new method for the localisation of attack regions in audio recordings. Previous attempts to do so were based on reducing the audio waveform into an envelope curve, which decreases its temporal resolution. The proposed approach detects the attack region directly from the audio waveform and shows a significant increase in precision.
Lartillot is currently working on developing a comprehensive AI-based system for advanced music analysis in the MIRAGE project.
