Abstract
In the following, we will give a very brief introduction to methods used to analyze acoustical signals. This topic on its own constitutes a huge field and one can devote a lifetime to mastering it. Much current research in acoustics involves the creation of algorithms for compressing digitized acoustical signals to facilitate their transmission and storage. A large community of researchers devote their efforts to the analysis of speech signals to enable more efficient and effective means of human–machine and human–human communication.
