  • Abstract
    The interaction is studied between the effects of tree searching and predictor and quantizer adaptation in a differential pulse-code modulation (DPCM) speech digitizer. The maximum entropy method computes a new source model every 8 ms, and a variety of strategies are used to adapt the quantizer. Results are displayed in plots of local SNR versus time. It is found that the predictor, the quantizer, and the tree search each contribute roughly independently to the total SNR. Adaptivity contributes in total 6-7 dB and tree searching 2-3 dB.
