[Speex-dev] Some aditional details about split_cb_search_shape_sign

[Jean-Marc Valin]

Hi,

I suggest you start with split_cb_search_shape_sign_N1(), which is a
simplified version for complexity=1. The basic idea is quantized the
first sub-vector, update the target, quantize the second vector,
update... and so on. Of course, all of this is done in a closed
(analysis-by-synthesis) loop. The full split_cb_search_shape_sign()
function does the same except that it always tracks the N-best
hypotheses at the same time so it can produce a (sightly) better final
result. And yes it is messy and I doubt that can be improved much.
