Investigating the auditory enhancement phenomenon using behavioral temporal masking patterns.
A narrowband signal is subjected to less masking from a simultaneously presented notched masker if it is preceded by a precursor that occupies the same spectral region as the masker, a phenomenon referred to as enhancement. The present study investigated (i) the amount of enhancement for the detection of a narrowband noise added to a notched masker, and (ii) masking patterns associated with the...
متن کاملSpeech Enhancement Using Temporal Masking in the FFT Domain
Temporal masking models have not been previously applied in the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) domain for speech enhancement applications. This paper presents a novel speech enhancement algorithm using temporal masking in the FFT domain. The proposed algorithm is suitable for the cochlear speech processor and for other speech applications. The input signal is analysed using FFT and then grouped i...
متن کاملSpeech Enhancement using Temporal Masking and Fractional Bark Gammatone Filters
A speech enhancement technique based on the temporal masking properties of the human auditory system is presented. The noisy signal is divided into a number of sub-bands with fractional bark accuracy, and the sub-band signals are individually and adaptively weighted in the time domain according to a short-term temporal masking threshold to noise ratio estimate in each subband. Objective measure...
متن کاملSpeech Enhancement Using Wavelet Coefficients Masking with Local Binary Patterns
In this paper, we present a wavelet coefficients masking based on Local Binary Patterns (WLBP) approach to enhance the temporal spectra of the wavelet coefficients for speech enhancement. This technique exploits the wavelet denoising scheme, which splits the degraded speech into pyramidal subband components and extracts frequency information without losing temporal information. Speech enhanceme...
متن کاملPerceptual speech enhancement exploiting temporal masking properties of human auditory system
The use of simultaneous masking in speech enhancement has shown promise for a range of noise types. In this paper, a new speech enhancement algorithm based on a short-term temporal masking threshold to noise ratio (MNR) is presented. A novel functional model for forward masking based on three parameters is incorporated into a speech enhancement framework based on speech boosting. The performanc...
