For determining a long-term-prediction delay parameter characterizing a long term prediction in a technique using signal modification for digitally encoding a sound signal, the sound signal is divided into a series of successive frames, a feature of the sound signal is located in a previous frame, a corresponding feature of the sound signal is located in a current frame, and the long-term-prediction delay parameter is determined for the current frame while mapping, with the long term prediction, the signal feature of the previous frame with the corresponding signal feature of the current frame. In a signal modification method for implementation into a technique for digitally encoding a sound signal, the sound signal is divided into a series of successive frames, each frame of the sound signal is partitioned into a plurality of signal segments, and at least a part of the signal segments of the frame are warped while constraining the warped signal segments inside the frame. For searching pitch pulses in a sound signal, a residual signal is produced by filtering the sound signal through a linear prediction analysis filter, a weighted sound signal is produced by processing the sound signal through a weighting filter, the weighted sound signal being indicative of signal periodicity, a synthesized weighted sound signal is produced by filtering a synthesized speech signal produced during a last subframe of a previous frame of the sound signal through the weighting filter, a last pitch pulse of the sound signal of the previous frame is located from the residual signal, a pitch pulse prototype of given length is extracted around the position of the last pitch pulse of the sound signal of the previous frame using the synthesized weighted sound signal, and the pitch pulses are located in a current frame using the pitch pulse prototype. |
