The core function mlintmex returns a long string with embedded newlines to separate the messages. Wrapping all that is the mlintrpt function, which calls mlint/checkcode internally. However, using mlint still works even today. In R2011b (Matlab 7.13) its official function name has changed to checkcode, although this was never documented in the release notes for some reason. Wrapping the core mlintmex function is the mlint m-function ( %matlabroot%/toolbox/matlab/codetools/mlint.m) that calls mlintmex internally. However, the name and interface of the mlintmex function have remained unchanged over the years. In recent releases, mlintmex, just like many other core mex files, was ported into a core Matlab library ( libmwbuiltins.dll on Windows). For many years mlint relied on a mex file ( %matlabroot%/toolbox/matlab/codetools/x*), which is basically just a wrapper for mlint.dll where the core algorithm resides.

Naturally, there is (and has always been) an undocumented back door.įrom its earliest beginnings, mlint has relied on C code (presumably modeled after lint).
Unfortunately, to this day (R2013a), there is no documented manner of programmatically separating mlint warnings and errors, nor for accessing any of the multitude of features that are readily available in mlint.
Since its development (in R14 I believe), and especially since its incorporation in Matlab’s Editor in R2006a (Matlab 7.2), mlint has become a very important tool for reporting potential problems in m-files. If you can specifically limit your source material, then you have a number of algorithms at your disposal depending on the nature of those sources.Mlint, Matlab’s static code-analysis parser, was written by Stephen Johnson (the original developer of the enormously successful lint parser for C/C++ back in 1977), when he was lured by MathWorks in 2002 to develop a similar tool for Matlab. In short, if you are planning on making an all-purpose algorithm to generate clean acapella cuts from arbitrary source material, you're probably biting off more than you can chew here. For instance, if you are dealing with electronic music, you can use to your advantage the stereo width of the track to eliminate all mono elements (ie, basslines + kicks) to extract the vocals + other panned instruments, and then apply some type of filtering and spectrum analysis from there. In the middle case, you are dealing with simple music which you could apply some sort of algorithm tuned to the parameters of the music to. You would do this by generating an impulse response from one of the tracks and applying it to the other.

In the best case, you have access to the multitrack studio recordings and have at least a full mixdown and an instrumental track, in which case you could extract the vocal frequencies from the mix.
I have a feeling that this is the case you are probably looking at given the nature of your question. In the worst case, your material would be normal mp3's of regular songs - ie, a full band + vocalist. However, if you can be more specific about the nature of the audio material you are working with here, you might be able to get a little bit further. At best, you might be able to extract some of the vocals and a few extra crossover frequencies from the mix. As others have noted, solving this problem using only raw spectrum analysis is a dauntingly hard problem, and you're unlikely to find a good solution to it.
