Abstract:
A fast convergence speech enhancement method is proposed in this paper. The noise estimation acceleration technique is applied to the conventional statistical model based algorithm to shorten the convergence time after the sudden change of noise intensity. First, the burst detection of power spectrum is performed on the noisy spectrum. Next, the loglikelihood ratio (LLR) based VAD is used in the period when the noise power is stationary, and the spectral entropy based VAD is implemented in the hang-over frames after the burst of noisy spectrum. Then a flag is set to control the update of noise estimation. Finally, an attenuated version of the noisy spectrum will be used directly as noise estimation if the update flag is set to one. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated under ITU-T G.160. In comparison with the conventional method, the convergence time is reduced evidently, while the abilities of noise reduction and SNR improvement are preserved, and the impact on the objective speech quality is constrained to a low level.
