One of our team members was sick for the whole week, therefore they were unable to make progress on the project. We also had issues with searching for software libraries that will allow us to test our frequency processor due to having installation issues which took longer than expected. For example, we tried installing a library called CREPE in python that would give us the frequencies given an audio sample. We were planning on using this to compare it with our frequency processor output. The problem is to install this it required tensorflow and installing tensorflow was giving us a lot of issues. After unsuccessfully trying to install CREPE, we decided to move away from CREPE and found another library called Parselmouth which was very easy to install. Therefore, we will be using Parselmouth to test our frequency processor. This library allows us to get all the frequencies of a specific audio, therefore we could compare the output of this library to the output of our own processor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Therefore the risk that I see is us not being able to finish everything on-time. However, I think that by putting in more work in the upcoming weeks we should be able to get back on track. Working on the Design Review helped us reorganize ourselves and adjust our plans based on the setbacks of this week.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Changes made to design\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We have not made any changes to our overall design, but we have worked more on developing the specifics of the sub-processors and the transcription engine. We have determined a method of isolating the pitches at specific segments of the signal, a binary mapping system to determine when a new key-press occurs, and a design structure that contains this information in a way that is easily comprehensible by the VexFlow library.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Updated schedule<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We have updated our schedule a little bit, to make the process of building the sub-processors more concurrent and adding some sections for the user-testing part of our project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-127\" src=\"http:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s23-teamd8\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/253\/2023\/02\/Gantt-chart-updated-300x232.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s23-teamd8\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/253\/2023\/02\/Gantt-chart-updated-300x232.png 300w, https:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s23-teamd8\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/253\/2023\/02\/Gantt-chart-updated-768x593.png 768w, https:\/\/course.ece.cmu.edu\/~ece500\/projects\/s23-teamd8\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/253\/2023\/02\/Gantt-chart-updated-1024x791.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><b><i>Photos about progress\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Parselmouth manually examining\/testing of pitch over time compared to SciPy (previous method).
