Samba Library
|
Samba library is a collection of functions for Matlab developed during my PhD in musicology.
In this library, I have implemented many routines for movement and music analysis. The algorithms implemented as Matlab functions include procedures for the implementation of the Topological Gesture Analysis (Naveda & Leman, 2010), Basic Gesture Analysis (Leman & Naveda, 2010) among other functions. I am preparing these functions and some tutorial for dissemination. If you are interested or want to try some undocumented code, let me know. |
