This paper presents new filter bank design methods for sub- band adaptive beamforming. In this work, we design analysis and synthesis prototypes for modulated filter banks so as to minimize each aliasing term individually. We then drive the total response ...
Confusion matrices and truncation experiments have long been a part of psychoacoustic experimentation. However confusion matrices are seldom used to analyze truncation experiments. A truncation experiment was conducted and the confusion patterns were analy ...
In this paper, a new feature extraction technique based on modulation spectrum derived from syllable-length segments of sub-band temporal envelopes is proposed. These sub-band envelopes are derived from auto-regressive modelling of Hilbert envelopes of the ...
The goal of this thesis is to develop and design new feature representations that can improve the automatic speech recognition (ASR) performance in clean as well noisy conditions. One of the main shortcomings of the fixed scale (typically 20-30 ms long ana ...
Audio coding based on Frequency Domain Linear Prediction (FDLP) uses auto-regressive model to approximate Hilbert envelopes in frequency sub-bands for relatively long temporal segments. Although the basic technique achieves good quality of the reconstructe ...
Whenever the speech signal is captured by a microphone distant from the user, the acoustic response of the room introduces significant distortions. To remove these distortions from the signal, solutions exist that greatly improve the ASR performance (what ...
In this letter, a new feature extraction technique based on modulation spectrum derived from syllable-length segments of sub-band temporal envelopes is proposed. These sub-band envelopes are derived from auto-regressive modelling of Hilbert envelopes of th ...
\begin{abstract} In this paper, we address an adaptive beamforming application in realistic acoustic conditions. After the position of a speaker is estimated by a speaker tracking system, we construct a subband-domain beamformer in \emph{generalized sidelo ...
In this paper, we address an adaptive beamforming application in realistic acoustic conditions. After the position of a speaker is estimated by a speaker tracking system, we construct a subband-domain beamformer in generalized sidelobe canceller (GSC) conf ...
Conventional frequency-domain speech enhancement filters improve signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), but also produce speech distortions. This paper describes a novel post-processing algorithm devised for the improvement of the quality of the speech processed by ...
