Robust speech separation using time-frequency masking
A multi-microphone time-frequency speech masking technique is proposed. This technique utilizes both the timefrequency magnitude and phase information in order to estimate the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) maximizing masking coefficients for each time-frequency block given that the direction (or alternatively, the time-delay of arrival) of the speaker of interest is known. Using this masking algo...
متن کاملIsolating the energetic component of speech-on-speech masking with ideal time-frequency segregation.
When a target speech signal is obscured by an interfering speech wave form, comprehension of the target message depends both on the successful detection of the energy from the target speech wave form and on the successful extraction and recognition of the spectro-temporal energy pattern of the target out of a background of acoustically similar masker sounds. This study attempted to isolate the ...
متن کاملPerceptual speech coding using time and frequency masking constraints
This paper presents a new wide-band speech coding system based on a fast wavelet packet transform algorithm as well as a formulation of temporal and spectral psychoacoustic models of masking. The proposed FFT-like overlapped block orthogonal transform allows us to approximate the auditory critical band decomposition in an e cient manner, which is a major advantage over previous approaches that ...
متن کاملOn time-frequency masking in voiced speech
This paper addresses the issue of masking of noise in voiced speech. First, we examine the audibility of cyclostationary narrow-band noise bursts added to voiced speech generated by synthetic excitation. Varying the temporal location of noise within a pitch cycle corresponds to varying its phase spectrum. Using this fact, we found that a change of phase of the noise in the high frequency region...
متن کاملZero-Crossing Based Time-Frequency Masking for Sound Segregation
This paper presents a new method of zero-crossing based binaural mask estimation for sound segregation under the condition that multiple sound sources are present simultaneously. The masking is determined by the estimated sound source directions using the spatial cues such as inter-aural time differences (ITDs) and inter-aural intensity differences (IIDs). In the suggested method, the estimatio...
