Abstract

For many recognition systems, the feature extraction unit forms the most computationally intensive and power consuming component. In this paper, we present a design of an analog-to-information converter that directly produces a pulse-encoded representation of linear predictive coded (LPC) features corresponding to an input analog signal. At the core of proposed design is a sigma-delta modulation procedure that is embedded within a learning step. Measured results from a fabricated prototype in a 0.5μm CMOS technology demonstrate the real-time functionality of the learner in extracting 6-dimensional online LPC features from input speech signal while consuming only 450 μW.
