In this paper an estimator for speech enhancement based on Laplacian Mixture Model has been proposed. The proposed method, estimates the complex DFT coefficients of clean speech from noisy speech using the MMSE  estimator, when the clean speech DFT coefficients are supposed mixture of Laplacians and the DFT coefficients of  noise are assumed zero-mean Gaussian distribution. Furthermore, the MMS...

in wireless channel the noise has a zero mean. this channel property can be used in the enhancement of the noise performance in the digital receivers by oversampling the received signal and calculating the decision variable based on the time average of more than one sample of the received signal. the averaging process will reduce the effect of the noise in the decision variable that will approa...

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a promising tool in the analytical science because it provides good selectivity and sensitivity without the labeling process required by fluorescence detection. This technique consists of locating the target analyte on nanometer range of roughed Au-nanoparticles. The presence of the metal nanoparticles provides a tremendous enhancement to the result...

PURPOSE To examine MR characteristics and enhancement patterns of spinal ependymomas and compare these data with histopathologic subtypes. METHODS The MR images from 26 cases of pathologically proved spinal ependymomas were evaluated with respect to seven criteria: signal characteristics, enhancement pattern, length of involvement, cysts or syrinxes, hemorrhage, bony changes, and type of cord...

background imaging plays a critical role not only in the detection, but also in the characterization of lung masses as benign or malignant. objectives to determine the diagnostic accuracy of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (mri) in the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant lung masses. patients and methods ninety-four masses were included in this prospective study. five dynamic seri...

A reliable speech enhancement method is important for speech applications as a pre-processing step to improve their overall performance. In this paper, we propose a novel frequency domain method for single channel speech enhancement. Conventional frequency domain methods usually neglect the correlation between neighboring time-frequency components of the signals. In the proposed method, we take...
