#1 Robust noise estimation using minimum correction with harmonicity control [PDF] [Copy] [Kimi1] [REL]

Authors: Xuejing Sun, Kuan-Chieh Yen, Rogerio Alves

In this paper a new noise spectrum estimation algorithm is described for single-channel acoustic noise suppression systems. To achieve fast convergence during abrupt change of noise floor, the proposed algorithm uses a minimum correction module to adjust an adaptive noise estimator. The minimum search duration is controlled by a harmonicity module for improved noise tracking under continuous voicing condition. Objective test results show that the proposed algorithm consistently outperforms competitive noise estimation methods.
