Tools for Signal Compression : Applications to Speech and Audio Coding.

Tools for Signal Compression : Applications to Speech and Audio Coding.

This book presents tools and algorithms required to compress/uncompress signals such as speech and music. These algorithms are largely used in mobile phones, DVD players, HDTV sets, etc. In a first rather theoretical part, this book presents the standard tools used in compression systems: scalar and...
