    Abstract: A method for characterizing inhalation noise within a pressurized air delivery system, the method including the steps of: generating an inhalation noise model ( 912, 1012 ) based on inhalation noise; receiving an input signal ( 802 ) that includes inhalation noise comprising at least one inhalation noise burst; comparing ( 810 ) the input signal to the noise model to obtain a similarity measure; comparing the similarity measure to at least one threshold ( 832, 834 ) to detect the at least one inhalation noise burst; and characterizing ( 1354, 1356 ) the at least one detected inhalation noise burst.

    Abstract: A speech coder that performs analysis-by-synthesis coding of a signal determines gain parameters for each constituent component of multiple constituent components of a synthetic excitation signal. The speech coder generates a target vector based on an input signal. The speech coder further generates multiple constituent components associated with the synthetic excitation signal, wherein one constituent component of the multiple constituent components is based on a shifted version of another constituent component of the multiple constituent components. The speech coder further evaluates an error criteria based on the target vector and the multiple constituent components to determine a gain associated with each constituent component of the multiple constituent components.

    Abstract: A method of providing robust quantization of speech spectral parameters tolerant to spectral balance and speaker variations, includes the steps of, for each of a plurality of line spectral frequencies (LSFs) of a speech spectrum, quantizing (14) the displacement (12) of the LSF from an estimate (42) of its long-term mean, and, at an encoder (10) and a decoder (20), reconstructing (22,34) an estimate of the LSF from the quantized displacement and the long-term LSF mean estimate, and filtering (26,30,32) the reconstructed LSF estimate, thereby providing a subsequent long-term LSF mean estimate. In an alternative (fig 2), a prediction error, derived from the LSF from which a current short-term LSF mean value and a current moving average predicted LSF estimate have been subtracted, is quantized and, at an encoder and a decoder, the prediction error is dequantized and a next-current short-term LSF mean value and a next-current moving average predicted LSF estimate are determined.
