State based sub-band LP Wiener filters for speech enhancement in car environments
نویسندگان
چکیده
The performance of Wiener filters in restoring the quality and intelligibility of noisy speech depends on: (i) the accuracy of the estimates of the power spectra or the correlation values of the noise and the speech processes, and (ii) on the Wiener filter structure. In this paper a Bayesian method is proposed where model combination and model decomposition are employed for the estimation of parameters required to implement subband Wiener filters. The use of subband Wiener filters provides advantages in terms of improved parameter estimates and also in restoring the temporal-spectral composition of speech. The method is evaluated, and compared with the parallel model combination, using the TIMIT continuous speech database with BMW and VOLVO car noise databases.

متن کاملCar Speech Enhancement Using Microphone Array Beamforming and Post Filters
This paper presents a speech enhancement method to suppress the car noise interference. A linear microphone array is adopted for far-talking speech acquisition and delayand-sum beamforming noise reduction. We exploit an effective time delay estimator using the coherence function between the reference microphone and the beamformed speech. To further enhance the beamformed speech, we design an im...

This paper presents new adaptive filtering techniques used in speech enhancement system. Adaptive filtering schemes are subjected to different trade-offs regarding their steady-state misadjustment, speed of convergence, and tracking performance. Fractional Least-Mean-Square (FLMS) is a new adaptive algorithm which has better performance than the conventional LMS algorithm. Normalization of LMS ...
