LPC

LPC, or Linear Predictive Coding, is a method used to analyze and synthesize speech signals. It works by estimating future sound samples based on past samples, essentially capturing the unique characteristics of a person's voice. This process translates the complex sound wave into a set of simplified parameters, making it easier to store, transmit, or modify speech efficiently. LPC is widely used in telecommunications, speech recognition, and audio compression because it provides a compact representation of speech without losing essential voice qualities.
