In mobile devices, perceived speech signal degrades significantly in the presence of background noise as it reaches directly at the listener's ears. There is a need to improve the intelligibility and quality of the received speech signal in noisy environments by incorporating speech enhancement algorithms.

An important parameter in quality assessment of speech enhancement systems is speech distortion, measured in terms of quality of the speech component. In fact, in the context of noise reduction, the user tends to prefer a certain degree of residual noise over distorted speech with suppressed background noise. The challenge of instrumental speech component quality evaluation lies, among others, ...

The present work was carried out to investigate the relation between a speaker’s age and the quality of the encoded speech for several, well known speech coding techniques and a commercially available vocoder CMX618. For this purpose, a corpus of speech records obtained from speakers of various age and gender groups was created. The PESQ (Perceptual Evaluation of Speech quality) method was used...
