Abstract :
In the last years there has been a growing interest for nonlinear speech models. Several works have been published revealing the better performance of nonlinear techniques, but little attention has been dedicated to the implementation of the nonlinear model into real applications. This work is focused on the study of the behaviour of a nonlinear predictive model based on neural nets, in a speech waveform coder. Our novel scheme obtains an improvement in SEGSNR between 1 and 2 dB for an adaptive quantization ranging from 2 to 5 bits
