Sudden noise reduction based on GMM with noise power estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a method for reducing sudden noise using noise detection and classification methods, and noise power estimation. Sudden noise detection and classification have been dealt with in our previous study. In this paper, noise classification is improved to classify more kinds of noises based on k-means clustering, and GMM-based noise reduction is performed using the detection and classification results. As a result of classification, we can determine the kind of noise we are dealing with, but the power is unknown. In this paper, this problem is solved by combining an estimation of noise power with the noise reduction method. In our experiments, the proposed method achieved good performance for recognition of utterances overlapped by sudden noises.

Around the word, traffic growth is causing growing air and noise pollution. Noise levels in a given area are affected by traffic on the streets as well as effective factors, including existing infrastructure and industrial centers, and so on. The purpose of this research is to model and estimate the amount of acoustic emission in the streets of Tehran's third district, using the 3D spatial info...

In this paper, we propose a noise robust speech recognition method by combination of temporal domain singular value decomposition(SVD) based speech enhancement and Gaussian mixture model(GMM) based speech estimation. The bottleneck of GMM based approach is a noise estimation problem. For this noise estimation problem, we incorporated the adaptive noise estimation in GMM based approach. Furtherm...

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...

Gamma-ray detection has an important role in the enhancement the nuclear safety and provides a proper environment for applications of nuclear radiation. To reduce the risk of exposure, aerial gamma survey is commonly used as an advantage of the distance between the detection system and the radiation sources. One of the most important issues in aerial gamma survey is the detection noise. Various...
متن کاملImpact of noise reduction and spectrum estimation on noise robust speaker identification
Many spectrum estimation methods and speech enhancement algorithms have previously been evaluated for noise-robust speaker identification (SID). However, these techniques have mostly been evaluated over artificially noised, mismatched training tasks with GMM-UBM speaker models. It is therefore unclear whether performance improvements observed with these methods translate to a broader range of n...
