  • Patent number: 11651778
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods of encoding and decoding an audio signal, and an encoder and a decoder for performing the methods. The method of encoding an audio signal includes identifying an input signal corresponding to a low frequency band of the audio signal, windowing the input signal, generating a first latent vector by inputting the windowed input signal to a first encoding model, transforming the windowed input signal into a frequency domain, generating a second latent vector by inputting the transformed input signal to a second encoding model, generating a final latent vector by combining the first latent vector and the second latent vector, and generating a bitstream corresponding to the final latent vector.
