  • Patent number: 11978465
    Abstract: A method of generating a residual signal performed by an encoder includes identifying an input signal including an audio sample, generating a first residual signal from the input signal using linear predictive coding (LPC), generating a second residual signal having a less information amount than the first residual signal by transforming the first residual signal, transforming the second residual signal into a frequency domain, and generating a third residual signal having a less information amount than the second residual signal from the transformed second residual signal using frequency-domain prediction (FDP) coding.

  • Publication number: 20240144943
    Abstract: An audio signal encoding/decoding method and an apparatus for performing the same are disclosed. The audio signal encoding method includes obtaining a full-band input signal, extracting a first feature vector corresponding to a first sub-band signal and a second feature vector corresponding to a second sub-band signal using an encoder neural network including a plurality of encoding layers, generating a first code vector corresponding to the first feature vector and a second code vector corresponding to the second feature vector by compressing the first feature vector and the second feature vector, and generating a bitstream by quantizing the first code vector and the second code vector.

  • Publication number: 20240087577
    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for audio encoding/decoding that is robust against coding distortion in a transition section. An audio encoding method includes outputting a frequency domain signal by time-to-frequency (T/F) transform of an input signal, outputting a frequency domain residual signal in which a frequency axis envelope is removed from the frequency domain signal by applying frequency domain noise shaping (FDNS) encoding to the frequency domain signal, outputting a time domain residual signal in which a time axis envelope is removed by performing linear prediction coefficient (LPC) analysis based on the frequency domain residual signal, and quantizing and transmitting the time domain residual signal.
