Puff Noise Detection and Cancellation for Robust Speech Recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, an algorithm for detecting and attenuating puff noises frequently generated under the mobile environment is proposed. As a baseline system, puff detection system is designed based on Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), and 39th Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) is extracted as feature parameters. To improve the detection performance, effective acoustic features for puff detection are proposed. In addition, detected puff intervals are attenuated by high-pass filtering. The speech recognition rate was measured for evaluation and confusion matrix and ROC curve are used to confirm the validity of the proposed system. Keywords—Gaussian mixture model, puff detection and cancellation, speech enhancement.

Improving the performance of MFCC for Persian robust speech recognition
The Mel Frequency cepstral coefficients are the most widely used feature in speech recognition but they are very sensitive to noise. In this paper to achieve a satisfactorily performance in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) applications we introduce a noise robust new set of MFCC vector estimated through following steps. First, spectral mean normalization is a pre-processing which applies to t...

Performance of speech recognition systems is greatly reduced when speech corrupted by noise. One common method for robust speech recognition systems is missing feature methods. In this way, the components in time - frequency representation of signal (Spectrogram) that present low signal to noise ratio (SNR), are tagged as missing and deleted then replaced by remained components and statistical ...
متن کاملAdaptive Noise Reduction in Aircraft Communication Systems
In many military environments, such as fighter jet cockpits, the increasing use of digital communication systems has created a need for robust vocoders and speech recognition systems. However, the high level of ambient noise in such environments makes vocoders less intelligible and makes reliable speech recognition more difficult. One method of enhancing the noise-corrupted speech is adaptive n...
متن کاملNoise Cancellation Method for Robust Speech Recognition
Noise cancellation is the process of removing background noise from speech signal. The degradation of speech due to presence of background noise and several other noises cause difficulties in various signal processing tasks like speech recognition, speaker recognition, speaker verification etc. Many methods have been widely used to eliminate noise from speech signal like linear and nonlinear fi...

In this paper, we present a frequency band threshold based on wavelet transform (FBT) noise cancellation method. The noise cancellation is enable to improve on the articulation of the speech. Although the edge information of the speech is very important for recognition system to use, most traditional noise cancellation methods based on spectrum analysis smooth these edges of the original speech...
