چکیده

—Source of speech signal consists of voiced part and unvoiced part. In conventional source-filter model, those two sources are considered to be independent. But in real situation it is difficult to segregate the source into voiced and unvoiced part. Actual source consists of mixture of two sources and the ratio varies according to the contents or intention of the speaker. In this paper we tried to segregate the components of voiced and unvoiced while considering source models. Source signals are modeled based on residual signal measured from inverse filtering. Two kinds of source models are assumed. Each model parameters is optimized to the original speech signal using genetic algorithm. The resulting parameters were compared in terms of the mel-cepstral distance to the original signal, spectrogram and spectral envelope from the synthesized signal.

An optimization technique for vendor selection with quantity discounts using Genetic Algorithm

Vendor selection decisions are complicated by the fact that various conflicting multi-objective factors must be considered in the decision making process. The problem of vendor selection becomes still more compli-cated with the inclusion of incremental discount pricing schedule. Such hard combinatorial problems when solved using meta heuristics produce near optimal solutions. This paper propose...

Research of Blind Signals Separation with Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization Based on Mutual Information

Blind source separation technique separates mixed signals blindly without any information on the mixing system. In this paper, we have used two evolutionary algorithms, namely, genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization for blind source separation. In these techniques a novel fitness function that is based on the mutual information and high order statistics is proposed. In order to evalu...
