An Automatic Watermarking in CELP Speech Codec Based on Formant Tuning

TLDR
The serial problem in atermarking and then encoding with the CELP codec was thereby reduced by using the proposed method which also ncreased the bit detection rate.
Abstract
This paper proposes the unification of the codeexcited linear prediction (CELP) codec process with watermarking based on formant tuning. The serial problem in atermarking and then encoding with the CELP codec was thereby reduced by using the proposed method which also ncreased the bit detection rate. We took advantage of two key properties: I) humans do not perceive alterations applied to formants and II) CELP and watermarking based on formant tuning methods utilize lineal prediction coefficients. We investigated the inaudibility and robustness of the proposed method by carrying out three different experiments using log-spectrum distance (LSD), the perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ) and the bit detection rate (BDR). The results indicated that the proposed method satisfied the inaudibility requirement when watermarking was applied to the CELP codec, which increased the watermarking detection rate.

A new model of LPC excitation for producing natural-sounding speech at low bit rates

B. Atal, +1 more
TL;DR: This paper describes a new approach to the excitation problem that does not require a priori knowledge of either the voiced-unvoiced decision or the pitch period, and minimizes a perceptual-distance metric representing subjectively-important differences between the waveforms of the original and the synthetic speech signals.
