Robust fundamental frequency estimation against background noise and spectral distortion
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a new method for robust fundamental frequency (F0) estimation in the presence of background noise and spectral distortion. We define degree of dominance and a dominance spectrum based on instantaneous frequencies. The degree of dominance allows us to evaluate the magnitude of individual harmonic components of speech signals relative to background noise while eliminating the influence of spectral distortion. The fundamental frequency is robustly estimated from reliable harmonic components easily selected from the dominance spectra. Experiments are performed using white and multi-talker background noise with and without spectral distortion produced by a SRAEN filter. Results show that the present method is better than the commonlyused methods in terms of correct F0 rates.

The aim of this paper is robust identification of smart foam, as an electroacoustic transducer, considering unmodeled dynamics due to nonlinearities in behaviour at low frequencies and measurement noise at high frequencies as existent uncertainties. Set membership estimation combined with model error modelling technique is used where the approach is based on worst case scenario with unknown but...

Gamma-ray detection has an important role in the enhancement the nuclear safety and provides a proper environment for applications of nuclear radiation. To reduce the risk of exposure, aerial gamma survey is commonly used as an advantage of the distance between the detection system and the radiation sources. One of the most important issues in aerial gamma survey is the detection noise. Various...
متن کاملClean speech reconstruction from MFCC vectors and fundamental frequency using an integrated front-end
The aim of this work is to enable a noise-free time-domain speech signal to be reconstructed from a stream of MFCC vectors and fundamental frequency and voicing estimates, such as may be received in a distributed speech recognition system. To facilitate reconstruction, both a sinusoidal model and a source-filter model of speech are compared by listening tests and spectrogram analysis, with the ...
