Robust Speaker Verification in Colored Noise Environment

ثبت نشده
چکیده

Absfrm-Noise robustness of automatic speaker verification systems is crucial in real life applications. A study on the performance of several spectral subtraction-based speech enhancement techniques shows the poor performance of these algorithms when used as a preprocessing stage of the speaker verification system in the presence of colored noise. In this paper, a new technique based on the addition of modeled colored noise is introduced. Experimental results in both white and colored noise environments are presented, showing the improvement of the proposed scheme.

Multimodal Speaker Verification Based on Electroglottograph Signal and Glottal Activity Detection

To achieve robust speaker verification, we propose a multimodal method which includes additional nonaudio features and glottal activity detector. As a nonaudio sensor an electroglottograph (EGG) is applied. Parameters of EGG signal are used to augment conventional audio feature vector. Algorithm for EGG parameterization is based on the shape of the idealized waveform and glottal activity detect...

Noise-robust speaker verification using F0 features

This paper proposes a noise-robust speaker verification method augmented by fundamental frequency (F0). The paper first describes a noise-robust F0 extraction method using the Hough transform. Then, it proposes a robust speaker verification method using multi-stream HMMs which fuse the extracted F0 and cepstral features. Experiments are conducted using fourconnected-digit utterances of Japanese...

A Kalman Filter with a Perceptual Post-filter to Enhance Speech Degraded by Colored Noise

Speech enhancement algorithms have been employed successfully in many areas such as VoIP, automatic speech recognition and speaker verification. Some of the methods assume that the environmental noise is white noise. However, when used in colored noise environments, those methods will produce a weaker performance. Approaches for colored noise have also been previously proposed, however those pr...
