Patent CA-2554002-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FALLER CHRISTOF
IPC: H04S3/02
Filed: 2005-01-17
Abstract: The apparatus for constructing a multi-channel output signal using an input signal and parametric side information, the input signal including the first input channel and the second input channel derived from an original multi-channel signal, and the parametric side information describing interrelations between channels of the multi-channel original signal uses base channels for synthesizing (324) first and second output channels on one side of an assumed listener position, which are different from each other. The base channels are different from each other because of a coherence measure. Coherence between the base channels (for example the left and the left surround reconstructed channel) is reduced by calculating (322) a base channel for one of those channels by a combination of the input channels, the combination being determined by the coherence measure. Thus, a high subjective quality of the reconstruction can be obtained because of an approximated original front/back coherence.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé, un système et un produit-programme destinés à mesurer une synchronisation audio/vidéo. Le procédé consiste d'abord à réaliser une acquisition d'informations audio/vidéo dans un système de synchronisation audio/vidéo. L'étape d'acquisition de données est suivie d'une analyse des informations audio et d'une analyse des informations vidéo. Ensuite, les informations audio sont analysées en vue d'une localisation de la présence de sons associés à des caractéristiques vocales personnelles d'un locuteur. Les informations audio sont alors filtrées par suppression des données associées aux caractéristiques vocales personnelles d'un locuteur en vue de la production d'informations audio filtrées. Dans cette phase, les informations audio et les informations vidéo filtrées sont analysées, des limites décisionnelles pour les MuEv audio et vidéo sont déterminées, et des MuEv audio et vidéo associés sont mis en corrélation. Dans la phase d'analyse, les MuEv audio et vidéo sont calculés à partir des informations audio et vidéo, et les informations audio et vidéo sont classifiées en sons de voyelles comprenant AA, EE, OO, le silence et les phones non classifiés. Les informations sont utilisées pour déterminer et associer une classe audio dominante dans une image vidéo. Des emplacements correspondants sont déterminés et le décalage vidéo-audio est déterminé.
