Abstract
A method of encoding an audio signal is provided comprising: applying multiple different time-frequency transformations to an audio signal frame; computing measures of coding efficiency across multiple frequency bands for multiple time-frequency resolutions; selecting a combination of time-frequency resolutions to represent the frame at each of the multiple frequency bands based at least in part upon the computed measures of coding efficiency; determining a window size and a corresponding transform size; determining a modification transformation; windowing the frame using the determined window size; transforming the windowed frame using the determined transform size; modifying a time-frequency resolution within a frequency band of the transform of the windowed frame using the determined modification transformation.
