F0 estimation using SRH based on TV-CAR speech analysis

چکیده
This paper proposes novel robust speech F0 estimation using SRH (Summation Residual Harmonics) based on TV-CAR (Time-Varying Complex AR) analysis. We have already proposed robust F0 estimation based on the TV-CAR analysis in which weighted auto-correlation for complex residual signals is used as the criterion. In the SRH method, the criterion is calculated from LP residual signals. The criterion is summation of residual spectrum value for harmonics. In this paper, we propose SRH-based F0 estimation based on the TV-CAR analysis, in which the criterion is calculated from the complex AR residual. Since complex AR residual provides higher resolution of spectrum, the criterion might be effective for F0 estimation. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method performs better than conventional methods.

On a robust F0 estimation of speech based on IRAPT using robust TV-CAR analysis
Fundamental frequency (F0) estimation is important in speech processing such as speech coding, synthesis, recognition and so on. A present F0 estimation method performs well under clean condition, however the performance deteriorates significantly in noisy environment. As a result, robust F0 estimation against additive noise is demanded. We have previously proposed F0 estimation methods based o...

We have already proposed novel robust parameter estimation algorithms of time-varying complex AR (TV-CAR) model for analytic speech signal, which are based on GLS (Generalized Least Square) and its modification of ELS (Extended Least Square). The ELS method is more sophisticated method that can be derived by matrix inversion theorem. We have shown that the methods can achieve robust speech spec...

A robust fundamental frequency (F0) estimation algorithm based on robust ELS (Extended Least Square) complexvalued speech analysis for an analytic speech signal is proposed in this paper. Speech spectrum can be accurately estimated in low frequencies since the analytic signal provides spectrum only over positive frequencies. The remarkable feature makes it possible to realize more accurate F0 e...
