چکیده
Unwanted noises have a negative influence over communication because it disturbs the conversation and make the communication impossible. Speech enhancement algorithms are used for improving the quality and intelligibility or to reduce listener fatigues. Assessment of speech quality can be done by using either subjective listening test or objective quality measure. Evaluation of several objective measures with the speech processed by enhancement algorithms has been performed but these having limitations to assess original speech signal. This paper represents the study of speech quality measures and compute the values used for regression analyses of the objective measures evaluation study using spectral subtraction algorithm based enhanced speech signal.

Evaluation of objective measures for speech enhancement
In this paper, we evaluate the performance of several objective measures in terms of predicting the quality of noisy speech enhanced by noise suppression algorithms. The objective measures considered a wide range of distortions introduced by four types of real-world noise at two SNRs by four classes of speech enhancement algorithms: spectral subtractive, subspace, statistical-model based and Wi...

متن کاملSpeech Enhancement using Boll’s Spectral Subtraction Method based on Gaussian Window
This paper investigates the effect of Gaussian window frequency response Side lobe Attenuation on the improvement of Speech quality in terms of six objective quality measures. In Speech Enhancement process, signal corrupted by noise is segmented into frames and each segment is Windowed using Gaussian window with variation in the side lobe attenuation parameter “α”. The Windowed Speech segments ...
