  • Patent number: 11948590
    Abstract: An apparatus for providing a processed audio signal representation on the basis of input audio signal representation configured to apply an un-windowing, in order to provide the processed audio signal representation on the basis of the input audio signal representation. The apparatus is configured to adapt the un-windowing in dependence on one or more signal characteristics and/or in dependence on one or more processing parameters used for a provision of the input audio signal representation.

  • Patent number: 11929084
    Abstract: An audio encoder for encoding an audio signal has: a first encoding processor for encoding a first audio signal portion in a frequency domain, having: a time frequency converter for converting the first audio signal portion into a frequency domain representation; an analyzer for analyzing the frequency domain representation to determine first spectral portions to be encoded with a first spectral resolution and second regions to be encoded with a second resolution; and a spectral encoder for encoding the first spectral portions with the first spectral resolution and encoding the second portions with the second resolution; a second encoding processor for encoding a second different audio signal portion in the time domain; a controller for analyzing and determining, which portion of the audio signal is the first audio signal portion encoded in the frequency domain and which portion is the second audio signal portion encoded in the time domain; and an encoded signal former for forming an encoded audio signal havi

  • Patent number: 11922961
    Abstract: An audio decoder for providing a decoded audio information on the basis of an encoded audio information includes a linear-prediction-domain decoder configured to provide a first decoded audio information on the basis of an audio frame encoded in a linear prediction domain, a frequency domain decoder configured to provide a second decoded audio information on the basis of an audio frame encoded in a frequency domain, and a transition processor. The transition processor is configured to obtain a zero-input-response of a linear predictive filtering, wherein an initial state of the linear predictive filtering is defined depending on the first decoded audio information and the second decoded audio information, and modify the second decoded audio information depending on the zero-input-response, to obtain a smooth transition between the first and the modified second decoded audio information.

  • Publication number: 20240071395
    Abstract: An apparatus for encoding a first channel and a second channel of an audio input signal including two or more channels to obtain an encoded audio signal according to an embodiment includes a normalizer configured to determine a normalization value for the audio input signal depending on the first channel of the audio input signal and depending on the second channel of the audio input signal. Moreover, the apparatus includes an encoding unit configured to generate a processed audio signal having a first channel and a second channel. The encoding unit is configured to encode the processed audio signal to obtain the encoded audio signal.

  • Patent number: 11915712
    Abstract: An audio encoder for encoding an audio signal includes: a first encoding processor for encoding a first audio signal portion in a frequency domain, wherein the first encoding processor includes: a time frequency converter for converting the first audio signal portion into a frequency domain representation having spectral lines up to a maximum frequency of the first audio signal portion; a spectral encoder for encoding the frequency domain representation; a second encoding processor for encoding a second different audio signal portion in the time domain; a cross-processor for calculating, from the encoded spectral representation of the first audio signal portion, initialization data of the second encoding processor, so that the second encoding processing is initialized to encode the second audio signal portion immediately following the first audio signal portion in time in the audio signal; a controller configured for analyzing the audio signal and for determining, which portion of the audio signal is the firs

  • Publication number: 20060005172
    Abstract: The method comprises at least: a first step (11) for the acquisition of a code object model A from the original code (1); a second step (12) of conversion of the code object model A into a new object model B; a third step (13) of the generation of a code from the new model B. The invention applies especially to the automatic conversion of existing validated code, either from one language to another or within the same language through a modification of the original code, for example in order to correct its errors.
