(1999) A sensory-motor theory of rhythm, time perception and beat induction. J. New Music Research.28(1), 1-24. a model which both detects beats and also gives a representation of the event structure and density of an acoustic signal, works pretty well with both music and speech. cheers Neil ***************** Dr Neil Todd Dept. of Psycholology University of Manchester Manchester UK
