Time-varying autoregressive tests for multiscale speech analysis
Summary
Summary
In this paper we develop hypothesis tests for speech waveform nonstationarity based on time-varying autoregressive models, and demonstrate their efficacy in speech analysis tasks at both segmental and sub-segmental scales. Key to the successful synthesis of these ideas is our employment of a generalized likelihood ratio testing framework tailored to...
Adaptive short-time analysis-synthesis for speech enhancement
Summary
Summary
In this paper we propose a multiresolution short-time analysis method for speech enhancement. It is well known that fixed resolution methods such as the traditional short-time Fourier transform do not generally match the time-frequency structure of the signal being analyzed resulting in poor estimates of the speech and noise spectra...
