Abstract
An upper limit of a frequency range of audio indicated by input audio data is detected. A representative point extraction unit downsamples the input audio data to a sampling rate set to be less than or equal to twice the detected upper limit to obtain representative-point audio data. An interpolation processing unit upsamples the representative-point audio data by using a fractal interpolation function (FIF) that uses a mapping function calculated by a mapping function calculation unit, while using the input audio data, if necessary, to generate high-frequency interpolated audio data.
