Abstract

AbstractThis paper presents a novel approach to speech enhancement that is based on compressed sensing. Voice activity detection is performed to identify the speech and non-speech (pauses) frames. The non-speech frame is then used for noise estimation. Orthogonal matching pursuit is employed to obtain improved speech by sparse recovery. During pauses, the noise is measured and used to update the orthogonal matching pursuit termination threshold. The proposed technique is tested for white noise. The comparison with a few state of art algorithms is carried out in terms of segmental signal-to-noise ratio and perceptual evaluation of speech quality. The outcomes show the benefits of the proposed approach.KeywordsCompressed sensingOrthogonal matching pursuitSpeech enhancementVoice activity detection
