PointProcess

PointProcess

A PointProcess object represents a point process, which is a sequence of points t_i in time, defined on a domain [t_min, t_max]. The index i runs from 1 to the number of points. The points are sorted by time, i.e. t_i+1 > t_i.

PointProcess commands

Creation from scratch:

• Create empty PointProcess...

Creation of a pulse train from a pitch contour:

• PitchTier: To PointProcess: area-1 along entire time domain.

• Pitch: To PointProcess: same, but excludes voiceless intervals.

• Sound & Pitch: To PointProcess (cc): "pitch-synchronous": near locations of high amplitude.
