Comparative evaluation of F0 estimation algorithms

Alain de Cheveigné, Hideki Kawahara

This paper reports the comparative evaluation of several speech F0 evaluation algorithms over a wide database of laryngograph-labeled speech. Included are several classic algorithms that are available in software on the net, as well as two new algorithms that offer greatly reduced error rates. Particular attention is given to the methodology of evaluation.
