Abstract

A method expands a bandwidth of an audio signal by determining a magnitude time-frequency representation |G(ω, t) for example audio signals g(t). A set of frequency marginal probabilities P(ω|z)are estimated from |G(ω, t)|, and a magnitude time-frequency representation |X(ω, t)| is determined from an input signal audio signal x(t). Probabilities P(z), P(z) and P(t|z) are determined using P(ω|z)|X(ω, t)|. |Ŷ(ω, t)| is reconstructed according to PP(z)P(ω|z)P(t|z), and |Ŷ(ω, t)| is transformed to a time domain to obtain a high-quality output audio signal ŷ(t) corresponding to the input audio signal x(t).
