Abstract:
Beamforming method can effectively remove background noise, even in the complex environment, so it is widely used in speech enhancement. We propose a novel Generalized Eigenvalue (GEV) beamforming with Blind Analytic Normalization (BAN) method. In this method, the GEV beamformer coefficients are constructed by estimating logarithmic power spectrum (LPS), which are used to filter multichannel speech signals, and post filter technology is used to further remove noise in the beamformed signals. Firstly, in order to estimate the LPS of speech signal in each channel, we use the data-driven method to train the deep neural network (DNN) model. Then, we use the well trained DNN model to estimate LPS, which is used to calculate the power spectral density (PSD) matrix of speech, and further obtain the coefficients of the GEV beamformer. Since the GEV beamformer will cause speech distortion, the BAN is employed to post-process the beamformed signal. Furthermore, single channel speech enhancement is used to reduce residual noise. Our experiment is conducted in 8-channel simulation data set. The experimental results show that, compared with some existing speech enhancement methods, the proposed method can effectively remove background noise and achieve better speech enhancement effect. © 2020 IEEE.
