    A novel algorithm accurately estimates string instrument inharmonicity by minimizing partial frequency deviations. This method offers precise results for piano tones with low computational cost.

    Area of Science:

    • Acoustics and musical instrument analysis.
    • Digital signal processing for audio.
    • Computational physics of musical instruments.

    Background:

    • Stringed instruments exhibit inharmonicity, a deviation from ideal harmonic frequencies.
    • Accurate estimation of inharmonicity is crucial for sound synthesis and analysis.
    • Existing methods for inharmonicity estimation can be computationally intensive.

    Discussion:

    • The partial frequencies deviation method offers an intuitive approach to inharmonicity estimation.
    • Minimizing spectral peak deviation provides a robust estimation strategy.
    • Iterative convergence ensures accurate identification of the inharmonicity coefficient.

    Key Insights:

    • The proposed algorithm accurately estimates the inharmonicity coefficient for slightly inharmonic sounds.
