In the domain of music and sound processing, pitch extraction plays a pivotal role. This research introduces "PitchNet", a convolutional neural network tailored for pitch extraction from the human singing voice, including acapella performances. Integrating autocorrelation with deep learning techniques, PitchNet aims to optimize the accuracy of pitch detection. Evaluation across datasets comprising synthetic sounds, opera recordings, and time-stretched vowels demonstrates its efficacy. This work paves the way for enhanced pitch extraction in both music and voice settings.
