Sound source models (SSMs) are used to study and simulate the physical behavior of various sound production mechanisms. The SSM representation of audio can be used in many digital audio applications, including digital sound synthesis, structural analysis of sounds, automatic transcription of musical signals, and parametric audio coding.

For more information on this work, see our SSM Homepage.
