Technical Examples

The shape of windows used during linear predictive analysis can be optimized through the use of gradient-descent based window optimization procedures. Window optimization may be achieved fairly precisely through the use of a primary optimization procedure, or less precisely through the use of an alternate optimization procedure. Both optimization procedures use the principle of gradient-descent to find a window sequence that will either minimize the prediction error energy or maximize the segmental prediction gain. However, the primary optimization procedure uses a Levinson-Durbin based algorithm to determine the gradient while the alternate optimization procedure uses an estimate of the gradient based on the basic definition of a derivative. These optimization procedures can be implemented as computer readable software code. Additionally, the optimization procedures may be implemented in a window optimization device which generally includes a window optimization unit and may also include an interface unit.
