1. A speech coding apparatus for encoding speech data which is input to the speech coding apparatus, the speech coding apparatus comprising:

  • an input device for receiving the speech data; and

    at least one processor coupled to the input device, the at least one processor for parameterizing the speech data to produce at least one feature vector which describe parameters of the speech data, applying a first neural network to the at least one feature vector to obtain at least one speech classification of the speech data, creating characterized speech data by characterizing the speech data using a characterization methodology which depends on the at least one speech classification, and creating an encoded bitstream by encoding the characterized speech data.
