Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009007639A1] The invention relates to a method for quantifying components ((yj)1=j=r ), wherein certain components are each determined based on a plurality of audio signals ( (sj)11=j=N) and can be calculated by the application of a linear conversion on the audio signals, said method comprising: determining a quantification function (Qm) to be applied to the components by testing a condition relative to an audio signal ( Si ) and depending on a comparison made between a psycho-acoustic masking threshold (Mm t(s,i) ) relative to the audio signal and a value determined based on the reverse linear conversion and quantification errors of the components by the function.
