Speaker information enhancement
نویسنده
چکیده
This study consists of two experiments*. Experiment A investigates speaker-information distribution in the parametric domain. Experiment B compares different weighting strategies for speaker-information enhancement. The results indicate that weightings based on speaker-information distribution in the parametric domain yield better speaker recognition performance.

Enhancement of speech in multispeaker environment
In this paper a method based on the excitation source information is proposed for enhancement of speech, degraded by speech from other speakers. Speech from multiple speakers is simultaneously collected over two spatially distributed microphones. Time-delay of each speaker with respect to the two microphones is estimated using the excitation source information. A weight function is derived for ...
متن کاملUsing Exciting and Spectral Envelope Information and Matrix Quantization for Improvement of the Speaker Verification Systems
Speaker verification from talking a few words of sentences has many applications. Many methods as DTW, HMM, VQ and MQ can be used for speaker verification. We applied MQ for its precise, reliable and robust performance with computational simplicity. We also used pitch frequency and log gain contour for further improvement of the system performance.
متن کاملSpeaker feature extraction from pitch information based on spectral subtraction for speaker identification
Robust speaker feature extraction under noise conditions is an important issue for application of a speaker recognition system. It is well known that LPC cepstrum, which expresses the spectral envelope, is e ective for speaker recognition. This implies that the spectral rough structure is e ective for speaker recognition. However, LPC cepstrum is a noise-sensitive feature. On the other hand, sp...
متن کاملSpeech Enhancement Using Adaptive Filters and Independent Component Analysis Approach
In this paper we consider the problem of enhancement and extraction of one speaker speech signal corrupted by environmental acoustic noise/interferences and other speakers using array of microphones containing at least two microphones. The preprocessing unit mimic human auditory system by roughly emulating cochlea by nonuniform bandpass filter bank. We construct filter bank with center frequenc...
