RhythmoScope - Speech Rhythm Modulation Spectrum

RhythmoScope is a Python library for automatic speech rhythm modelisation. This project rely on the Envelope Modulation Spectrum (EMS) for analysing the main regularities of speech at different levels. This library is the result of my PhD thesis under the supervision of Corine Astésano and Jérôme Farinas.

🛠 Installation

Rhythmoscope should work with Python 3.9 and above. The library can be installed through the following pip command:

pip install rhythmoscope

🔬 Basic usage

EMS

As an example, we'll extract and plot the EMS of a speech signal from a .wav file (examples wav files can be found in /examples/audios):

from rhythmoscope.ems import EMSExtractor
from rhythmoscope.envelope import LowPassEnvelope

Envelope = LowPassEnvelope(cut_frequency=10, order=3, initial_bandpass=(300, 1000)) # Define envelope extractor
Extractor = EMSExtractor(Envelope=Envelope, min_freq=0, max_freq=10) # Define EMS extractor parameters

EMS = Extractor.from_file("example.wav", start=0, end=4) # Extract EMS on the first 4 seconds of the audio

fig = EMS.plot()
fig.show()

It produce the following output which represent the Envelope Modulation Spectrum of a signal (examples wav files can be found in /examples/audios):

EMS_example

Rhythm spectrogram

from rhythmoscope.ems import EMSExtractor
from rhythmoscope.signal import RollingWindow
from rhythmoscope.spectrogram import RhythmSpectrogramExtractor

EMS = EMSExtractor(min_freq=0, max_freq=15) # Define EMS extractor parameters
Window = RollingWindow(window_size=3, hop_size=0.5) # Define parameters of the spectrogram rolling window (in seconds)

SpectroExtract = RhythmSpectrogramExtractor(EMS, Window) # Define Spectrogram extractore parameters
spectrogram = SpectroExtract.from_file("count.wav") # Extract spectrogram

fig = spectrogram.plot()
fig.show()

It produce the following output which represent the Rhythm Spectrogram of a signal:

Spectrogram_example

Each red line correspond to a regular rhythm at a given time. The rhythmic evolution in this example comes from the fact that the words spoken are mono-syllabic in the first half and bi-syllabic in the second.
