  • Abstract
    A new filter structure using admissible wavelet packet analysis is presented. These filters have the advantage of having frequency bands spacing similar to the Mel scale. Further wavelet packet transform´s multiresolution capabilities are used to derive new sets of features, which are found to be superior to Mel frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) in unvoiced phoneme classification problems.
