feature extraction from speech using mfcc matlab coding
function [ CC, FBE, frames ] = mfcc( speech, fs, Tw, Ts, alpha, window, R, M, N, L )
% MFCC Mel frequency cepstral coefficient feature extraction.
%
% MFCC(S,FS,TW,TS,ALPHA,WINDOW,R,M,N,L) returns mel frequency
% cepstral coefficients (MFCCs) computed from speech signal given
% in vector S and sampled at FS (Hz). The speech signal is first
% preemphasised using a first order FIR filter with preemphasis
% coefficient ALPHA. The preemphasised speech signal is subjected
% to the short-time Fourier transform analysis with frame durations
% of TW (ms), frame shifts of TS (ms) and analysis window function
% given as a function handle in WINDOW. This is followed by magnitude
% spectrum computation followed by filterbank design with M triangular
% filters uniformly spaced on the mel scale between lower and upper
% frequency limits given in R (Hz). The filterbank is applied to
% the magnitude spectrum values to produce filterbank energies (FBEs)
% (M per frame). Log-compressed FBEs are then decorrelated using the
% discrete cosine transform to produce cepstral coefficients. Final
% step applies sinusoidal lifter to produce liftered MFCCs that
% closely match those produced by HTK [1].
%
% [CC,FBE,FRAMES]=MFCC(..) also returns FBEs and windowed frames,
% with feature vectors and frames as columns.
%
% This framework is based on Dan Ellis' rastamat routines [2]. The
% emphasis is placed on closely matching MFCCs produced by HTK [1]
% (refer to p.337 of [1] for HTK's defaults) with simplicity and
% compactness as main considerations, but at a cost of reduced
% flexibility. This routine is meant to be easy to extend, and as
% a starting point for work with cepstral coefficients in MATLAB.
% The triangular filterbank equations are given in [3].
%
