چکیده

Reverberation suppression is a crucial problem in speech communications. The intelligibility of the speech signal will be degraded by strong reverberation. This paper presents a novel signal processing scheme that offers an improved solution in reducing the effect of interference caused due to reverberation. It is based on the combination of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) techniques. AdaBoost based EMD filtering technique is used for reverberation corrupted speech signal to decrease the noisy components present in the received signal. An improvement in the probability of detection is achieved using the proposed algorithm. The simulation results are obtained for various reverberation times at various SNR levels. KeywordsEmpirical Mode Decomposition, AdaBoost, feature extraction, signal de-noising, reverberation suppression.

Reverberation Suppression Based on Sparse Linear Prediction in Noisy Environments

We present a single channel method for late reverberation suppression. The proposed approach estimates late reverberation as a linear combination of previous time-frequency frames. We impose a sparsity constraint on the predictor in order to select the most relevant signal frames for the estimation. The dataset used for the evaluation is corrupted by background noise, thus we propose to jointly...

Simultaneous suppression of noise and reverberation in cochlear implants using a ratio masking strategy.

Cochlear implant (CI) recipients' ability to identify words is reduced in noisy or reverberant environments. The speech identification task for CI users becomes even more challenging in conditions where both reverberation and noise co-exist as they mask the spectro-temporal cues of speech in a rather complementary fashion. Ideal channel selection (ICS) was found to result in significantly more ...

Speech Enhancement Using EMD Based Adaptive Soft-Thresholding (EMD-ADT)

This paper presents a novel algorithm of speech enhancement using data adaptive softthresolding technique. The noisy speech signal is decomposed into a finite set of band limited signals called intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using empirical mode decomposition (EMD). Each IMF is divided into fixed length subframes. On the basis of noise contamination, the subframes are classified into two group...

Joint Dereverberation and Residual Echo Suppression of Speech Signals in a Noisy Environment

Hands-free devices, such as mobile phones, are perhaps one of the most prominent applications of acoustic echo cancellation systems. They are often used in a noisy enclosed environment. Therefore, the recorded near-end speech will also contain reverberation and background noise, which degrade the fidelity and intelligibility of speech. In the last two decades postprocessors have been developed ...

Pitch estimation of noisy speech signals using empirical mode decomposition

This paper presents a pitch estimation method of noisy speech signal using empirical mode decomposition (EMD). The normalized autocorrelation function (NACF) of the noisy speech signal is decomposed into a finite set of band-limited signals termed as intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using EMD. The periodicity of one IMF is supposed to be equal to the accurate pitch period. A conventional autocor...
