Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
This letter assesses an improved equalization transformation for robust speech recognition in noisy environments. The proposal is an evolution of the parametric approximation to Histogram Equalization named PEQ into a two-step algorithm dealing separately with environmental and acoustic mismatch. A first parametric equalization is done to eliminate environmental mismatch. These equalized data are divided into classes, and parametrically re-equalized using class specific references to reduce the acoustic mismatch. Experiments have been conducted for Aurora 2 and Aurora 4 databases. A comparative analysis of the experimental results shows significant benefits for databases with high acoustic variability like Aurora 4.
