Title: Method for Generating a Spectral Noise Weighting Filter for Use in a Speech Coder
Inventor: GERSON IRA A
IPC: G10L19/12
Filed: 1994-01-18
Abstract: Analysis by synthesis calculates a difference by subtracting (130) synthesized speech from input speech. The synthesized speech is formed by exciting long and short term filters (124,126) with excitation vectors from a codebook store (114) which is searched by codebook generation (120). A weighting filter (132) is applied to the difference signal and the weighted difference is used to calculate an energy measure (134) which is used to control the codebook search (140). The weighting filter is an Rth-order filter controlled with calculated coefficients. The method for calculating coefficients models the frequency response of L Pth-order filters by a single Rth-order filter, where the order R ~ LxP. This method increases the control of a speech coder filter without an increase in hardware complexity.

Patent CA-2138262-A1 (CA)
Inventor: OKUMURA YUKIHIKO
IPC: G06F9/30
Filed: 1994-09-07
Abstract: The present invention relates to a minimum/maximum data detector for rapidly detecting the minimum or the maximum data from a plurality of numeric data. In Fig. 1, one of consecutive numeric data stored in memory 1 is read out by an address designated by a register 2, and is transferred to registers 5 and 6. A counter 9 counts up the number of numeric data which have been stored in register 6. The contents of the registers 5 and 11 are compared by a circuit 4. When detecting minimum data, if the contents of the register 5 are judged to be smaller, the contents of the register 6 and the counted results of the counter 9 are linked in an index linking circuit 10. The linked result is then stored in the specific register 11. The content of the register 2 is incremented by "1"  whenever the comparison is executed. Once the read out of one series of consecutive numeric data have been completed, then the numeric data remaining in the specific register 11 is the minimum data. The address of the minimum data in the memory 1 can be obtained by adding the index (counted results) and the top address utilized at the beginning of the detection.
