Abstract:
An apparatus for determining a similarity information on the basis of one or more input signals is configured to determine a zero crossing information describing a number of zero crossings in a respective portion for a plurality of portions of at least one of the one or more input signals. The apparatus is configured to perform a comparison on the basis of the zero crossing information, in order to determine the similarity information. A method for determining a similarity information and a computer program are also described. Moreover, an apparatus for determining an autocorrelation information and an apparatus for determining a cross-correlation information are based on similar considerations.

Claim (Index 17):
The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is configured to determine a first zero crossing information using a first block size in a first step and to perform the comparison on the basis of the first zero crossing information, in order to acquire an information representing a time shift between similar regions of the one or more input signals, and\n wherein the apparatus is configured to determine a second zero crossing information using a second block size in a second step, in order to acquire a refined information representing a time shift between similar regions of the one or more input signals, wherein a range for which the second zero crossing information is determined is dependent on the information representing a time shift between similar regions of the one or more input signals acquired in the first step, and wherein the second block size is smaller than the first block size.
