Speech detection method based on a multi-window analysis

Aiming at the poor performance of speech signal detection at low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),a method is proposed to detect active speech frames based on multi-window time-frequency(T-F)diagrams.First,the T-F diagram of the signal is calculated based on a multi-window T-F analysis,and a speech test statistic is constructed based on the characteristic difference between the signal and background noise.Second,the dynamic double-threshold processing is used for preliminary detection,and then the global double-threshold value is obtained using K-means clustering.Finally,the detection results are obtained by sequential decision.The experimental results show that the overall performance of the method is better than that of traditional methods under various SNR conditions and background noises.This method also has the advantages of low complexity,strong robustness,and adaptability to multi-national languages.

A MULTI-WINDOW GIS APPROACH FOR WATER QUALITY DATA ANALYSIS

For many water quality studies,a data analyst,or modeler, may need to know the spatio-temproal patterns of the data sets and their relationships in both pre-processing and post-processing. Geographic Information System(GIS) can provide an exploratory spat

Multi-window Gabor frames and oblique Gabor duals on discrete periodic sets

Given L, N, M ∈ N and an NZ-periodic set S in Z, let l2(S) be the closed subspace of l2(Z) consisting of sequences vanishing outside S. For f = { fl : 0≤l≤L-1 }l2(Z), we denote by G(f, N, M) the Gabor system generated by f, and by L(f, N, M) the closed linear subspace generated by G(f, N, M). This paper addresses density results, frame conditions for a Gabor system G(g, N, M) in l2(S), and Gabor duals of the form G(a, N, M) in some L(h, N, M) for a frame G(g, N, M) in l2(S) (so-called oblique duals). We obtain a density theorem for a Gabor system G(g, N, M) in l2(S), and show that such condition is suficient for theexistence of g={XE1:0≤l≤L-1} with G(g,N,m) We characterize g with G(g,N,m) being respectively a frame for L(g,N,m) being a tight frame for l2(S).and G(h, N, M ) in L(h, N, M ), we establish a criterion for the existence of an oblique Gabor dual of g in L(h, N, M), study the uniqueness of oblique Gabor dual, and derive an explicit expression of a class of oblique Gabor duals (among which the one with the smallest norm is obtained). Some examples are also provided.

Multi-window dilation-and-modulation frames on the half real line

Wavelet and Gabor systems are based on translation-and-dilation and translation-and-modulation operators,respectively,and have been studied extensively.However,dilation-and-modulation systems cannot be derived from wavelet or Gabor systems.This study aims to investigate a class of dilation-and-modulation systems in the causal signal space L^2(R+).L^2(R+)can be identified as a subspace of L^2(R),which consists of all L^2(R)-functions supported on R+but not closed under the Fourier transform.Therefore,the Fourier transform method does not work in L^2(R+).Herein,we introduce the notion ofΘa-transform in L^2(R+)and characterize the dilation-and-modulation frames and dual frames in L^2(R+)using theΘa-transform;and present an explicit expression of all duals with the same structure for a general dilation-and-modulation frame for L^2(R+).Furthermore,it has been proven that an arbitrary frame of this form is always nonredundant whenever the number of the generators is 1 and is always redundant whenever the number is greater than 1.Finally,some examples are provided to illustrate the generality of our results.
