Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSpeech Enhancement Based on Adaptive Noise Cancellation and Particle Swarm OptimizationTayseer M.F. Taha, Summrina Kanwal Wajid, Amir HussainSpeech enhancement is used in almost all modern communication systems. This is due to the quality of speech being degraded by environmental interference factors, such as: Acoustic additive noise, acoustic reverberation or white Gaussian noise. This paper, explores the potential of different benchmark optimization techniques for enhancing the speech signal. This is accomplished by fine tuning filter coefficients using a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 5 · 28 May 2019 · 7,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSpeech Enhancement Algorithm Using Sub band Two Step Decision Directed Approach with Adaptive Weighting factor and Noise Masking ThresholdDeepa Dhanaskodi, Shanmugam ArumugamProblem statement: Speech Enhancement plays an important role in any of the speech processing systems like speech recognition, mobile communication, hearing aid. Approach: In this work, human perceptual auditory masking effect is incorporated into the single channel speech enhancement algorithm. The algorithm is based on a criterion by which the audible noise may be masked rather than being attenuated and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 7,126 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSpeech Enhancement Using Minimum Mean-Square Error Amplitude Estimators Under Normal and Generalized Gamma DistributionChabane Boubakir, Daoud BerkaniProblem statement: In this study, DFT-based speech enhancement via Minimum Mean-Square Error (MMSE) amplitude estimators was considered. Approach: Several variants of the basic approach (MMSE-STSA) have been proposed over the years to address certain shortcomings, chiefly the quality of the remnant noise and its trade-off with speech distortion. In this study, we presented a comparative study between the MMLSA and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,106 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleA NOVEL SPEECH ENHANCEMENT APPROACH BASED ON MODIFIED DCT AND IMPROVED PITCH SYNCHRONOUS ANALYSISV. R. Balaji, S. SubramanianSpeech enhancement has become an essential issue within the field of speech and signal processing, because of the necessity to enhance the performance of voice communication systems in noisy environment. There has been a number of research works being carried out in speech processing but still there is always room for improvement. The main aim is to enhance the apparent … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 21 Nov 2013 · 6,796 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA New Robust Hybrid Approach to Enhance Speech in Mobile Communication SystemsManimegalai Govindan Sumithra, Keppana Gounder Thanuskodi, Bharathi DeepaProblem statement: The received voice signal in mobile communication is often disturbed by background noise and hence there is a need for good noise reduction methods for enhancing Speech. It is well known that denoising is a compromise between the removal of the largest possible amount of noise and the preservation of signal integrity. To address this issue, a new … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsModeling of Fundamental Frequency Contour of Thai Expressive Speech using Fujisaki's Model and Structural ModelSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In spontaneous speech communication, prosody is an important factor that must be taken into account, since the prosody effects on not only the naturalness but also the intelligibility of speech. Focusing on synthesis of Thai expressive speech, a number of systems has been developed for years. However, the expressive speech with various speaking styles has not been accomplished. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 9 Aug 2011 · 6,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Noises on the Analysis of Fundamental Frequency Contours for Thai SpeechSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In speech communication, noises from surrounding environments affect the communication quality with various aspects. The received speech quality should be analyzed to see how the important noises reduce the speech quality so that we can eliminate them in an appropriate way. Approach: This study presents a study on the analysis of the noise effects on Thai speech. Four … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 6,827 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractARABIC PART OF SPEECH TAGGING USING K-NEAREST NEIGHBOUR AND NAIVE BAYES CLASSIFIERS COMBINATIONRund Mahafdah, Nazlia Omar, Omaia Al-OmariPart Of Speech (POS) tagging forms the important preprocessing step in many of the natural language processing applications such as text summarization, question answering and information retrieval system. It is the process of classifying every word in a given context to its appropriate part of speech. Different POS tagging techniques in the literature have been developed and experimented. Currently, it … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 2 May 2014 · 7,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Method for Automatic Speech Recognition Performance Improvement in Real World Noisy EnvironmentUrmila Shrawankar, Vilas ThakareIt is a well known fact that, speech recognition systems perform well when the system is used in conditions similar to the one used to train the acoustic models. However, mismatches degrade the performance. In adverse environment, it is very difficult to predict the category of noise in advance in case of real world environmental noise and difficult to achieve … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2013 · 7,754 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Effective System for Acute Spotting Aberration in the Speech of Abnormal Children Via Artificial Neural Network and Genetic AlgorithmC. R. Bharathi, V. ShanthiProblem statement: In real-world environment, speech signal processing plays a vital role among the research communities. A wide range of researches are carried out in this field for denoising, enhancement and more. Besides the other, stress management is important to identify the spot in which the stress has to be made. Approach: In this study, in order to provide proper … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 13 Aug 2012 · 7,205 accessesView PDFCite
