Popis: In applications such as music information and database retrieval systems, classification of musical instruments plays an important role. The proposed work presents automatic classification of Indian Classical instruments based on spectral and MFCC features using well trained back propogation neural network classifier. Musical instruments such as Harmonium, Santo or and Tabla are considered for an experimentation. The spectral features such as amplitude and spectral range along with Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients are considered as features. Being features are not distinguished, classification is done using non parametric classifiers such as neural networks. Being number of cepstrum coefficients are large important coefficients are selected using Principal Component Analysis. It has been observed that using 42 samples for training and 18 for testing, back propogation neural network provides accuracy of 98%. The present work can be extended for more number of Hindustani and Carnitic classical musical Instruments.
