Discrete weighted mean square all-pole modeling
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper presents a new method for all-pole model estimation based on minimization of the weighted mean square error in the sampled spectral domain. Due to discrete nature of the proposed distance measure, emphasis can be put on an arbitrary set of spectral samples what can greatly improve the model accuracy for periodic signals. Weighting can also be applied to improve the fitting in certain spectral regions according to any desired fidelity criterion. Iterative algorithm for determination of the optimal model is proposed and an exceptionally fast convergence rate is demonstrated. Accuracy of the estimation algorithm is verified on an example of a synthetic vowel for a broad range of pitch frequencies.

Harmonic weighting for all-pole modeling of the voiced speech
A new distance measure for all-pole modeling of voiced speech is introduced in this paper. It can easily be integrated within the concept of discrete Weighted Mean Square Error (WMSE) all-pole modeling, by a suitable choice of the modeling weights. The proposed weighting will address the problems such as: harmonic estimation reliability, perceptual significance of the harmonic and the model mis...
متن کاملPole Assignment Of Linear Discrete-Time Periodic Systems In Specified Discs Through State Feedback
The problem of pole assignment, also known as an eigenvalue assignment, in linear discrete-time periodic systems in discs was solved by a novel method which employs elementary similarity operations. The former methods tried to assign the points inside the unit circle while preserving the stability of the discrete time periodic system. Nevertheless, now we can obtain the location of eigenvalues ...
