The Line Spectrum Pair (LSP) based on the principle of linear predictive coding (LPC) plays a very important role in the speech synthesis; it has many interesting properties. Several famous speech compression / decompression algorithms, including the famous code excited linear predictive coding (CELP), are based on the LSP analysis, where the information loss or predicting errors are often very...

Auditory models that are capable of achieving human performance in tasks related to speech perception would provide a basis for realizing effective speech processing systems. Saving bits in speech coders, for example, relies on a perceptual tolerance to acoustic deviations from the original speech. Perceptual invariance to adverse signal conditions (noise, microphone and channel distortions, m ...

This chapter covers key technologies in wideband audio coding including auditory masking, perceptual coding, frequency domain coding, and dynamic bit allocation. The MPEG standardization work is then described. MPEG algorithms have found a wide range of communications-based and storage-based applications. For example, European digital audio broadcast (DAB) makes use of MPEG-1. It will then be s...

Previous work in wireless speech recognition has focused on two methods, namely, quantizing recognition features (e.g. MFCC) or performing recognition using speech coding parameters (e.g. LPC). All of this previous research assumes that the communication channel is only large enough to transmit either speech coding parameters or speech recognition parameters. By contrast, we propose that the sp...

Audio disabled children or adults under oral rehabilitating therapy learn how to treat speech disorders or even how utter sounds imitating mouth elements position and movement. This technique has been proved beneficial to help people since specialized instructional program adopt it. The main proposal of this work is the development of an affordable tool to aid in this therapy.

speech coding in gsm pdf 260 bits.found that the use of GSM coding degrades significantly the identification and. Proposes an in-depth look at the influence of GSM speech coding on text. The full-rate GSM speech codec 2 is a lossy speech coding-decoding.In cellular communication technology, quality of voice output at destination depends on the channel condition. Bad channel condition will produ...

Problem statement: In mobile communication, speech coding aims at compressing the speech with lowest bitrate and highest quality for standard languages such as English, German and French. As for other languages with different uttering styles, the encoded speech quality is not guaranteed at the same bitrate. The appropriate evaluation should be performed to develop the speech quality by applying...

consisted of seven Ph.D. students (five of whom were located at the department), a part-time (20%) researcher (forskarassistent), two guest researchers, and a professor. The group performs research encompassed within speech processing, signal processing, and source coding and teaches two undergraduate courses (Information Theory and Source Coding, and Digital Speech Signal Processing), in addit...
