MÉTODO E DISPOSITIVO DE ESTIMATIVA DE RUÍDO PARA ESTIMAR RUÍDO EM DADOS CONTENDO INFORMAÇÃO DE VOZ E RUÍDO

摘要

A method of estimating noise in data containing voice information and noise includes receiving the data as a sequence of input values; transforming the data by applying a first non linear mapping to the input values wherein the derivative function of the mapping decreases in magnitude as the input values increase in magnitude smoothing the transformed data; and transforming the smoothed transformed data by applying a second non linear mapping that is opposite to the first non linear mapping, to determine an estimate of the noise in the inputted data.
