Reverberation time estimation on the ACE corpus using the SDD method

چکیده
Reverberation Time (T60) is an important measure for characterizing the properties of a room. The author’s T60 estimation algorithm was previously tested on simulated data where the noise is artificially added to the speech after convolution with a impulse responses simulated using the image method. We test the algorithm on speech convolved with real recorded impulse responses and noise from the same rooms from the Acoustic Characterization of Environments (ACE) corpus and achieve results comparable results to those using simulated data.

A method for estimation of direct-to-reverberant ratio (DRR) using a microphone array is proposed. The proposed method estimates the power spectral density (PSD) of the direct sound and the reverberation using the algorithm PSD estimation in beamspace with a microphone array and calculates the DRR of the observed signal.

متن کاملLearning to estimate reverberation time in noisy and reverberant rooms
The reverberation time, T60, is an important indicator of the reverberation strength in a room and has many applications in speech processing, such as dereverberation. However, the T60 must be blindly estimated if only reverberant speech is available. In this paper, we provide a learning based approach for T60 estimation. We treat the T60 estimation as a classification problem by dividing the T...
متن کاملA Pitch-Based Method for the Estimation of Short Reverberation Time
Reverberation corrupts harmonic structure in voiced speech. We observe that the pitch strength of voiced speech segments is indicative of the degree of reverberation. Consequently, we present an estimation method of reverberation time (T60) based on pitch strength. The pitch strength is measured by deriving the statistics of relative time lags, defined as the distances from the detected pitch p...
