%0 Journal Article %T A hybrid scheme for encoding audio signal using hidden Markov models of waveforms %A St¨¦phane Molla %A Bruno Torr¨¦sani %J Statistics %D 2013 %I arXiv %R 10.1016/j.acha.2004.11.001 %X This paper reports on recent results related to audiophonic signals encoding using time-scale and time-frequency transform. More precisely, non-linear, structured approximations for tonal and transient components using local cosine and wavelet bases will be described, yielding expansions of audio signals in the form tonal + transient + residual. We describe a general formulation involving hidden Markov models, together with corresponding rate estimates. Estimators for the balance transient/tonal are also discussed. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1304.5846v1
