The various speech coding algorithms we studied in the previous chapter rely heavily on the speech production model to identify structures in the speech signal that can be used for compression. Audio ...

Supposedly significant differences in algorithm complexity don’t lead to corresponding variances in speed or compression ratio. Last year, I wrote about the theory behind digital-audio compression, ...

these models achieved remarkable compression rates on image and audio data, surpassing domain-specific compression algorithms such as PNG and FLAC by a substantial margin. “Chinchilla models ...

To test if the human ear was accurate enough to discern certain theoretical limits on audio compression algorithms, physicists Jacob N. Oppenheim and Marcelo O. Magnasco at Rockefeller University ...

It also means paying careful attention to the audio transmission chain, both inside and outside the studio. Compression algorithms are not about boastful compression ratios but are intended for the ...

Modern audio compression algorithms rely on observations about auditory perceptions. For instance, we know that a low-frequency tone can render a higher tone inaudible. This perception is used to ...
