I do not want to find an exact replica of the model sample. I am definitely
more interested in the second approach you describe - extract certain
parameters of the model signal and then find something with similar values
for those parameters in the second.

I am hoping to find a library that might abstract away some of the low level
theory for me. What libraries did you have in mind?
