Adapting the Overlap-add Method to the Synthesis of Noise
نویسندگان
چکیده
Spectral synthesis techniques often use the OverLap-Add method. But in the case of noise synthesis, both experiments and theory show that this method introduces intensity fluctuations which imply audible artifacts. We propose here new methods to avoid these variations. The first one consists in multiplying the resulting signal by another weighting window to compensate dynamic fluctuations. The second one defines a new OLA weighting window. The third one concerns only noises synthesized with sinusoidal components and uses time-shifting to cancel artifacts.

Sample-based engine noise synthesis using an enhanced pitch-synchronous overlap-and-add method.
An algorithm for the real time synthesis of internal combustion engine noise is presented. Through the analysis of a recorded engine noise signal of continuously varying engine speed, a dataset of sound samples is extracted allowing the real time synthesis of the noise induced by arbitrary evolutions of engine speed. The sound samples are extracted from a recording spanning the entire engine sp...

Image denoising by block matching and threedimensionaltransform filtering (BM3D) is a two steps state-ofthe-art algorithm that uses the redundancy of similar blocks innoisy image for removing noise. Similar blocks which can havesome overlap are found by a block matching method and groupedto make 3-D blocks for 3-D transform filtering. In this paper wepropose a new block grouping algorithm in th...
متن کاملUsing a novel method for random noise reduction of seismic records
Random or incoherent noise is an important type of seismic noise, which can seriously affect the quality of the data. Therefore, decreasing the level of this category of noises is necessary for increasing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of seismic records. Random noises and other events overlap each other in time domain, which makes it difficult to attenuate them from seismic records. In this r...
متن کاملAn analysis/synthesis tool for transient signals that allows a flexible sines+transients+noise model for audio
We present a flexible analysis/synthesis tool for transient signals that extends current sinusoidal and sines+noise models for audio to sines+transients+noise. The explicit handling of transients provides a more realistic and robust signal model. Because the transient model presented is the frequency domain dual to sinusoidal modeling, it has similar flexibility and allows for a wide range of t...
