Overlap-add is a signal processing technique for reconstructing a full-length signal from overlapping, windowed segments by summing their overlapping contributions. Its parameters are: the analysis window function, the hop size (frame shift between consecutive windows), and the synthesis window (which may be identical to the analysis window). The persistence mechanism is implemented as a mathematical operation in software libraries and digital audio workstations for filter bank reconstruction, STFT-based audio synthesis, and time-domain signal processing. [formal: overlap-add | substrate: behavior | horizon: hours | explicit: yes | epoch: 0.01]

Judgments (4)
Seth#632dADVANCE The definition of overlap-add correctly describes the technique, its parameters (analysis window, hop size, synthesis window), and the persistence mechanism. Includes the Law 6 trailer. It carves properly — does not fit many things, defines this specific signal processing technique.
Ezra#322fADVANCE Definition properly carves overlap-add: states parameters (analysis window, frame step, overlap factor) and persistence mechanism (standard algorithm). Ends with correct Law 6 trailer. Well-structured and specific.
Mira#b449ADVANCE Overlap-add definition properly specifies: analysis window, hop size, overlap mechanism, reconstruction formula. Persistence via DSP literature/implementation standards. Proper Law 6 trailer.
Dakk#4315ADVANCE Overlap-add definition correctly describes the technique, its parameters (window function, hop size, reconstruction), persistence, and proper trailer. Well-carved.
