Abstract

This paper introduces the application of particle Swarm optimization techniques in speech enhancement structures. Because of the simple conception, the quick velocity of convergence and easy implementation, Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is used as an effective method in a wide variety of engineering problems. An improved PSO algorithm, called the Modified PSO (MPSO) algorithm, can find optimal or closer-to optimal solution, and has faster search speed. In this paper, we use PSO and MPSO algorithms for speech enhancement and compare the results. Experimental results show that MPSO algorithm outperforms the PSO algorithm in a sense of SNR improvement.
