L'objet de cette th se est l' tude d'une repr sentation structur e pour les sons polyphoniques. Les contraintes li es l'analyse de signaux polyphoniques am nent des artefacts dans la repr sentation spectrale, des pics sont manquants ou corrompus. Ces d gradations rendent le plus souvent inop rantes les techniques de suivi de partiels bas es sur des heuristiques simples. L'utilisation des contraintes relatives au mod le sinuso dal, comme le caract re pr dictible des volutions des param tres des partiels de m me que l'absence th orique de hautes fr quences dans ces volutions permettent de proposer de nouveaux algorithmes de suivi adapt's au probl me pos . Enfin, les partiels pr sentant certaines corr lations sont ensuite agr g's pour former des entit's sonores, chaque entit tant per ue par le syst me auditif humain non plus comme plusieurs sons simples mais comme un unique son complexe. On utilise pour cela plusieurs indices issus d' tudes psycho-acoustiques tels que l'apparition simultan e de partiels, leur relation d'harmonicit et les volutions corr l es de leurs param tres.
