Audio and Speech Processing with MATLAB

"Audio and Speech Processing with MATLAB is a very welcome and precisely realized introduction to the field of audio and speech processing. The initial chapters give numerous, novel and well-organized insights into the background of the subject. The combination of engineering, mathematics and perceptual analysis of the audio processing will to give the reader a unique understanding of the subject and its applications. Contemporary approaches such as speech recognition using deep learning are also a very timely addition. This book would form an important reference text for undergraduate and masters courses in the field."

"This constitutes an excellent introduction to the subject. The first chapters give a structured and comprehensive coverage of the core subjects necessary to understand the processing and analysis of audio: signal processing, acoustics, psychoacoustics, frequency analysis, and machine learning, all illustrated with MATLAB code. Throughout the book, important audio and speech applications are explored in detail, such as musical sound processing, speech coding, and wideband audio coding. I would thoroughly recommend this book as an excellent introduction to audio and speech processing for both undergraduate and postgraduate students."
