An audio-signal time-axis expansion/compression method for subjecting an audio signal to time-axis expansion/compression at a time domain includes the steps of: cross-fade-signal generating wherein a first period and a second period which are similar within the audio signal are employed to generate the cross-fade signal of the first period signal and the second period signal; correction-signal generating wherein the difference signal between the first period signal and the second period signal is subjected to time-axis reversal, and is multiplied with a window function to generate a correction signal; and connection-waveform generating wherein the cross-fade signal and the correction signal are added to generate a connection waveform for subjecting the audio signal to time-axis expansion/compression at the time domain.

In an audio signal expanding/compressing apparatus adapted to expand or compress, in a time domain, a plurality of channels of audio signals by using similar waveforms, a similar-waveform length detection unit calculates similarity of the audio signal between two successive intervals for each channel, and detects a similar-waveform length of the two intervals on the basis of the similarity of each channel.

A signal processing method divides a first signal of two signals to be compared in similarity into smaller regions, selects one of the regions, and calculates the correlation of the selected one with the other second signal. The method finds a time difference, an expansion factor, and a similarity in one region in which the maximum similarity as the square of the correlation is obtained, and performs integration in the position represented by the time difference and the expansion factor of values based on similarities. The method performs similar processing on all the regions, and evaluates similarity by, in a peak where the integrated value of similarities is a maximum, compares its magnitude with a threshold value. The region corresponding to the peak can be extracted.

The input signal can be quickly and accurately classified and a descriptor can be generated according to the result of classification. Then, the input signal can be retrieved on the basis of the result of classification or the descriptor. A signal processing apparatus comprises a time block splitting section 3 for splitting an audio signal into blocks that are typically 1 second long, a feature extracting section 4 for extracting a characteristic quantity of 18 degrees on the signal attribute from the audio signal in each block and a vector quantizing section 5 for carrying out an operation of categorical classification for the audio signal of each block by means of a vector quantization technique that uses a VQ code book 8 and a characteristic vector formed from the characteristic quantity of 18 degrees. The vector quantizing section 5 outputs a classification label obtained as a result of the categorical classification and a descriptor indicating the reliability of the label. If a signal retrieving operation is conducted in the downstream, the result of the classification or the descriptor is used for the signal retrieval.
