Abstract

A wavelet auditory model (WAM™) is formulated. The implementation of WAM™ for speech compression depends on an irregular sampling theorem and an analysis of time-scale data. The time-scale plane for WAM™ is analogous to Gabor’s dissection of the information plane by means of the uncertainty principle inequality. Generalizations of this inequality lead to other dissections of the information plane; and their proofs depend on weighted Fourier transform norm inequalities. These inequalities give rise to definitions of the Fourier transform on weighted Lebesgue spaces; the definitions are sometimes necessarily different than the usual one because of the behavior of the weights.
