Abstract

this paper proposed a new feature enhancement method based on Computational Auditory Scene Analysis (CASA) for dealing with the issue of robust speech recognition. Being different from traditional speech enhancement approaches which focus on clearing the noise from speech mixture as clean as possible, CASA aims to make use of Ideal Binary Mask (IBM) providing sufficient information for human speech recognition. Our experiment on standard Mandarin 863 test corpus plus Noise92 shows that the feature compensation based on CASA can comparatively achieve better improvement for robust speech recognition, particularly bringing about absolute from 20% to 40% improvement at-5dB SNR. Our experiment suggests that CASA method opens a new significant solution to dealing with the issue of robust speech recognition.
