The goal of this paper is to provide a technique to estimate the input parameters for a waveguide physical model. This work is motivated by the fact that the input parameters strongly influence the quality of the synthetic sound produced by the model. Though we examine the case of a bowed string instrument, this technique can be used to estimate parameters of other self-sustained oscillators. We furthermore describe a computer animation of a violin player whose motion is driven by the estimated parameters.
