“…Other alternative approaches are the frequency sampling algorithms [17,21], while the designed filter bank cannot allow low delay and discretisation of frequency domain in design is not rigorous from a mathematical viewpoint. Also, the frequency-response masking (FRM) algorithms [19,22,23] probably play an important role in large-scale filter bank design, the FRM algorithm can efficiently reduce the complexity and lead to filter bank with good overall performance, whereas the complexity reduction is at the expense of increasing system delay. In our previous work [9], the modified Newton's method with exact line search was utilised to design large-scale DFT modulated filter banks.…”
