Wide band sub-band speech coding using nonlinear prediction
share
We compare a wide band sub-band speech coder using ADPCM schemes with linear prediction against the same scheme with nonlinear prediction based on multi-layer perceptrons. Exhaustive results are presented in each band, and the full signal. Our proposed scheme with non-linear neural net prediction outperforms the linear scheme up to 2 dB in SEGSNR. In addition, we propose a simple method based on a non-linearity in order to obtain a synthetic wide band signal from a narrow band signal.
