Title:
ENCODING METHOD, DECODING METHOD, ENCODING DEVICE, DECODING DEVICE, PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/005212
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
In the present encoding method, a plurality of samples undergoes vector quantization to obtain a quantization value and a vector quantization index. A bit number less than or equal to a number obtained by subtracting a bit number used in the vector quantisation index encoding from a bit number allocated for the vector quantisation index encoding is allocated, following a predetermined priority on the basis of audio properties, to at least one sample position set from among a plurality of sample position sets each comprising a plurality of sample positions, and each being allocated priority on the basis of audio properties. With regards to each sample position set having a bit number allocated thereto, index information is output indicating a set of coefficients for minimising the sum, with regards to each sample position belonging to the sample set, of the error between values of samples belonging to the sample set and values obtained by multiplying quantization values of the samples belonging to the sample position set by a coefficients corresponding to the position of each sample.
