LPC Model

The Linear Prediction Coding (LPC) model is a mathematical technique used to analyze and synthesize human speech. It works by examining the speech signal and estimating how each sound is produced based on prior sounds, effectively modeling the vocal tract as a system of filters. LPC predicts the current speech sample from past samples, capturing the essential features of the voice with a small set of parameters. This makes it efficient for encoding speech in applications like voice compression and recognition, preserving key characteristics while reducing data size.
