Speech Enhancement with Local Adaptive Rank-Order Filtering
نویسندگان
چکیده
A local adaptive algorithm for speech enhancement is presented. The algorithm is based on calculation of the rank-order statistics of an input speech signal over a moving window. The algorithm varies the size and contents of a sliding window signal as well as an estimation function employed for recovering a clean speech signal from a noisy signal. The algorithm improves the quality of a speech signal preserving its intelligibility. The performance of the algorithm for suppressing additive noise in an input test speech signal is compared with that of common speech enhancement algorithms in terms of objective metrics.

متن کاملA New Shuffled Sub-swarm Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for Speech Enhancement
In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to enhance the noisy speech in the framework of dual-channel speech enhancement. The new method is a hybrid optimization algorithm, which employs the combination of the conventional θ-PSO and the shuffled sub-swarms particle optimization (SSPSO) technique. It is known that the θ-PSO algorithm has better optimization performance than standard PSO al...

In this paper, new Wiener filtering based binaural sub-band schemes are proposed for adaptive speech-enhancement. The proposed architectures combine a Multi-Microphone Sub-band Adaptive (MMSBA) system with Wiener filtering in order to further reduce the in-coherent noise components resulting from application of conventional MMSBA noise cancellers. A human cochlear model resulting in a non-linea...
متن کاملSpeech Enhancement Using Gaussian Mixture Models, Explicit Bayesian Estimation and Wiener Filtering
Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) of power spectral densities of speech and noise are used with explicit Bayesian estimations in Wiener filtering of noisy speech. No assumption is made on the nature or stationarity of the noise. No voice activity detection (VAD) or any other means is employed to estimate the input SNR. The GMM mean vectors are used to form sets of over-determined system of equatio...
متن کاملEnhancement of Speech Signal Corrupted by Impulsive Noise Using Rank Order Mean
Speech is the medium through which information can be conveyed from one person to another. Audible frequency range of human beings is between 20Hz to 20 kHz, significant frequency components has range up to 4 kHz. Rank Order Mean method has been proposed in this work which is used for ejection of impulse noise from the speech signal using Rank. To estimate the time occurrence of impulsive noise...
