Finally, the authors discuss the features, choices, and performance of the main...
Digital Coding of Waveforms: Principles and Applications to Speech and Video (Prentice-Hall Signal Processing Series)
Prentice Hall 1984. Authors N.S. and Noll, Petter Jayant book on image, video and speech coding.
Techniques and Standards for Image, Video, and Audio Coding
As audio and visual applications on CDs and on the Internet become more complex (videophones, multimedia books and videogames, video conferencing), coding and compression of these files is necessary for speed and size requirements. This book is the first to address the established and emerging international standards related to image/video/audio compression and coding. Covers all of the international standards for coding and compression, both approved and emerging, plus the...
Speech Coding and Synthesis
The fields of speech coding and synthesis have developed rapidly over the last decade. Text-to-text speech systems now produce reasonable quality speech, and currently available speech coders can transmit good quality speech at below 10kb/s. This, in combination with the ever-increasing speed of microprocessors and signal processing hardware, has resulted in a large number of practical applications. These applications in turn have stimulated research, and the number of papers published on...
