Based on the theory of auditory perception, a novel recognition approach which consists of the algorithms of Bark-wavelet analysis, Hilbert-Huang transform and support vector machine is proposed. The performance of the proposed method is validated by comparing with traditional method and evaluated by the recognition experiments for SNRs of 0 dB, 5 dB, 10 dB, 15 dB and 20 dB.The results show that the average recognition rate of the method is above 88% and can be increased by 0.75 % to 6.25% under various SNR conditions compared to the baseline system.展开更多

In order to solve these problems, a new continuous differentiable threshold function for speech enhancement was presented. Firstly, the function adopted narrow threshold areas, preserved the smaller signal speech, and improved the speech quality; secondly, based on the properties of the continuous differentiable and non-fixed deviation, each area function was attained gradually by using the method of mathematical derivation. It ensured that enhanced speech was continuous and smooth; it removed the auditory oscillation distortion; finally, combined with the Bark wavelet packets, it further improved human auditory perception. Experimental results show that the segmental SNR and PESQ (perceptual evaluation of speech quality) of the enhanced speech using this method increase effectively, compared with the existing speech enhancement algorithms based on wavelet threshold.展开更多
