The linear prediction model of speech production is reviewed and its various formulations are related. Algorithms are presented for efficient fixed-point analysis and synthesis, together with their execution times, on a small computer. The properties of the model are discussed, and the acoustic-tube analogue is developed. This forms the basis of a system currently being used for deaf speech training. The system is described, and results and experience gained from the initial evaluation period are discussed.
