نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents an alternative energy-based algorithm to provide speech/silence classification. The algorithm is capable to track non-stationary signals and dynamically calculate instantaneous value for threshold using adaptive scaling parameter. It is based on the observation of a noise power estimation used for computation of the threshold can be obtained using minimum and maximum values of a short-term energy estimate. The paper presents this novel voice activity detection algorithm, its performance, its limitations, and some other techniques which deal with energy estimation as well.

A New Algorithm for Voice Activity Detection Based on Wavelet Packets (RESEARCH NOTE)
Speech constitutes much of the communicated information; most other perceived audio signals do not carry nearly as much information. Indeed, much of the non-speech signals maybe classified as ‘noise’ in human communication. The process of separating conversational speech and noise is termed voice activity detection (VAD). This paper describes a new approach to VAD which is based on the Wavelet ...
متن کاملMaximum Power Point Tracking of the Photovoltaic System Based on Adaptive Fuzzy-Neural Method
The aim of this paper was to present an optimized method in order to use maximum capacity of the photovoltaic panels. In this regard, we presented a method for the maximum power point tracking in the photovoltaic systems by using the neural networks and adaptive controller. In the proposed system, we estimated an error by using neural network. If this error is lower than the allowable systems e...

This paper develops an energy management approach for a multi-microgrid (MMG) taking into account multiple objectives involving plug-in electric vehicle (PEV), photovoltaic (PV) power, and a distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) to improve power provision sharing. In the proposed approach, there is a pool of fuzzy microgrids granules that they compete with each other to prolong their lives...
متن کاملCoherence Based Double Talk Detector with Adaptive Threshold
Acoustic echo cancellation is one of the oldest applications of the adaptive filters and today part of each speakerphone. An important block of each acoustic echo canceller is the double talk detector. It blocks the adaptation of the filter when near end voice is present and thus preventing the adaptive filter from diverging from the optimal position. In this paper we present an improved versio...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Voice Activity Controlled Noise Canceller
In this paper, a variable threshold voice activity detector (VAD) is developed to control the operation of a two-sensor adaptive noise canceller (ANC). The VAD prohibits the reference input of the ANC from containing some strength of actual speech signal during adaptation periods. The novelty of this approach resides in using the residual output from the noise canceller to control the decisions...
