"Persian Classical Music Instrument Recognition (PCMIR) Using a Novel Persian Music Database." 2019 9th International Conference on Computer and Knowledge Engineering (ICCKE). IEEE, 2019. Due to the lack of availability of Persian musical instruments-based databases, we decided to make one. Proposed database contains of 7 main Persian musical instruments: Ney, Tar, Santur, Kamancheh, Tonbak, Ud and Setar classes. Classes consist of 89 to 110 samples; each sample 5-10 seconds. Database is developed with the aid of musicians whom we asked to play and we recorded. Some of the pieces were played in natural places such as rooms and music shops and a few in the music studios.
