What is Bark-Scale

Chapter 40
Encyclopedia of Internet Technologies and Applications
A non-linear frequency scale modeling the resolution of the human hearing system. One Bark distance on the Bark-scale equals to the so called critical bandwidth that is linearly proportional to the frequency under 500Hz and logarithmically above that. The critical bandwidth can be measured by the simultaneous frequency masking effect of the ear.

Abstract
This chapter presents a novel approach to search in shared audio file storages, such as P2P-based systems. The proposed method is based on the recognition of specific patterns in the audio contents in such a way to extend the searching possibility from the description based model to a content-based one.

A Content-Sensitive Approach to Search in Shared File Storages
A non-linear frequency scale modeling the resolution of the human hearing system. One Bark distance on the Bark-scale equals to the so-called critical bandwidth that is linearly proportional to the frequency under 500Hz and logarithmically above that. The critical bandwidth can be measured by the simultaneous frequency masking effect of the ear.

Content-Based Searching in Group Communication Systems
Nonlinear frequency scale modeling the resolution of the human hearing system. 1 Bark distance on the Bark-scale equals to the so called critical bandwidth that is linearly proportional to the frequency under 500Hz and logarithmically above that. The critical bandwidth can be measured by the simultaneous frequency masking effect of the ear.
