Influence of binary mask estimation errors on robust speaker identification
Missing-data strategies have been developed to improve the noise-robustness of automatic speech recognition systems in adverse acoustic conditions. This is achieved by classifying time-frequency (T-F) units into reliable and unreliable components, as indicated by a so-called binary mask. Different approaches have been proposed to handle unreliable feature components, each with distinct advantag...
متن کاملA Two Stage Mask Estimation Approach to Robust Speaker Verification
We propose a two-stage mask estimation approach to robust speaker verification (SV) in noise environments. We consider a practical semi-blind SV scenario: the location of the target speaker is fixed while the locations of all interferers are unknown. In the first stage, we use a dual-microphone and a semi-blind degenerate unmixing estimation technique (DUET) to estimate an initial binary mask. ...
متن کاملSpectro-temporal modulation energy based mask for robust speaker identification.
Spectro-temporal modulations of speech encode speech structures and speaker characteristics. An algorithm which distinguishes speech from non-speech based on spectro-temporal modulation energies is proposed and evaluated in robust text-independent closed-set speaker identification simulations using the TIMIT and GRID corpora. Simulation results show the proposed method produces much higher spea...
متن کاملAsr-driven Binary Mask Estimation for Robust Automatic Speech Recognition
Additive noise has long been an issue for robust automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. One approach to noise robustness is the removal of noise information through segregation by binary time-frequency masks; each time-frequency unit in a spectro-temporal representation of the speech signal is labeled either noise-dominant or signal-dominant. The noise-dominant units are masked and their e...
متن کاملBinary mask estimation based on frequency modulations
In this paper, a binary mask estimation algorithm is proposed based on modulations of speech. A multi-resolution spectrotemporal analytical auditory model is utilized to extract modulation features to estimate the binary mask, which is often used in speech segregation applications. The proposed method estimates noise from the beginning of each test sentence, a common approach seen in many conve...
