Speech Enhancement by Online Non-negative Spectrogram Decomposition in Non-stationary Noise Environments
نویسندگان
چکیده
Classical single-channel speech enhancement algorithms have two convenient properties: they require pre-learning the noise model but not the speech model, and they work online. However, they often have difficulties in dealing with non-stationary noise sources. Source separation algorithms based on nonnegative spectrogram decompositions are capable of dealing with non-stationary noise, but do not possess the aforementioned properties. In this paper we present a novel algorithm that combines the advantages of both classical algorithms and non-negative spectrogram decomposition algorithms. Experiments show that it significantly outperforms four categories of classical algorithms in non-stationary noise environments.

Speech enhancement by low-rank and convolutive dictionary spectrogram decomposition
A successful speech enhancement system requires strong models for both speech and noise to decompose a mixture into the most likely combination. However, if the noise encountered differs significantly from the system’s assumptions, performance will suffer. In previous work, we proposed a speech enhancement framework based on decomposing the noisy spectrogram into low rank background noise and a...
متن کاملCompact Long Context Spectral Factorisation Models for Noise Robust Recognition of Medium Vocabulary Speech
In environments containing multiple non-stationary sound sources, it becomes increasingly difficult to recognise speech from its shorttime spectra alone. Long-context speech and noise models, where phonetic patterns and noise events may span hundreds of milliseconds, have been found beneficial in such separation tasks. Thus far the majority of work employing non-negative matrix factorisation to...
متن کاملA Morphological Approach to Single-Channel Wind-Noise Suppression
Today, a variety of technical devices deploy spoken language processing technology. In many practical use cases, not only stationary ambient noises but non-stationary interferences, such as wind noise, degrade their performance. If only one microphone is available, regular noise reduction schemes are capable of suppressing stationary interferences. Wind noises, however, are highly non-stationar...
متن کاملSpeech Enhancement Based on Non-stationary Noise-driven Geometric Spectral Subtraction and Phase Spectrum Compensation
In this paper, a speech enhancement method based on noise compensation performed on short time magnitude as well phase spectra is presented. Unlike the conventional geometric approach (GA) to spectral subtraction (SS), here the noise estimate to be subtracted from the noisy speech spectrum is proposed to be determined by exploiting the low frequency regions of current frame of noisy speech rath...
متن کاملA New Method for Speech Enhancement Based on Incoherent Model Learning in Wavelet Transform Domain
Quality of speech signal significantly reduces in the presence of environmental noise signals and leads to the imperfect performance of hearing aid devices, automatic speech recognition systems, and mobile phones. In this paper, the single channel speech enhancement of the corrupted signals by the additive noise signals is considered. A dictionary-based algorithm is proposed to train the speech...
