Techniques for efficiently encoding an input signal are described. In one design, a generalized encoder encodes the input signal (e.g., an audio signal) based on at least one detector and multiple encoders. The at least one detector may include a signal activity detector, a noise-like signal detector, a sparseness detector, some other detector, or a combination thereof. The multiple encoders may include a silence encoder, a noise-like signal encoder, a time-domain encoder, a transform-domain encoder, some other encoder, or a combination thereof. The characteristics of the input signal may be determined based on the at least one detector. An encoder may be selected from among the multiple encoders based on the characteristics of the input signal. The input signal may be encoded based on the selected encoder. The input signal may include a sequence of frames, and detection and encoding may be performed for each frame.
