DEMO_AUDIOCOMPRESSION Audio compression using N-term approx This demos shows how to do audio compression using best N-term approximation of an WMDCT transform. The signal is transformed using an orthonormal WMDCT transform. Then approximations with a fixed number N of coefficients are obtained by: Linear approximation: The N coefficients with lowest frequency index are kept. Non-linear approximation: The N largest coefficients (in magnitude) are kept. The corresponding approximated signal can be computed using IWMDCT. Figure 1: Rate-distorition plot The figure shows the output Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) as a function of the number of retained coefficients. Note: The inverse WMDCT is not needed for computing computing SNRs. Instead Parseval theorem states that the norm of a signal equals the norm of the sequence of its WMDCT coefficients.
