Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
In many signal compression applications, the evolution of the signal over time can be represented by a sequence of random vectors with varying dimensionality. Frequently, the generation of such variable-dimension vectors can be modeled as a random sampling of another signal vector with a large but fixed dimension. Efficient quantization of these variable-dimension vectors is a challenging task and a critical issue in speech coding algorithms based on harmonic spectral modeling. We introduce a simple and effective formulation of the problem and present a novel technique, called variable-dimension vector quantization (VDVQ), where the input variable-dimension vector is directly quantized with a single universal codebook. The application of VDVQ to low bit-rate speech coding demonstrates significant gain in subjective quality as well as in rate-distortion performance over prior indirect methods.
