PROCEDURE FOR PROCESSING NOISY SPEECH SIGNALS, AND APPARATUS AND COMPUTER PROGRAM THEREFOR

摘要

Provided are a noise state determination method and an apparatus and a computer readable recording medium therefor. A noisy speech signal processing method according to the present invention includes calculating a transformed spectrum by transforming an input noisy speech signal to a frequency domain; calculating a smoothed magnitude spectrum by reducing magnitude differences of the transformed spectrum between neighboring frames; calculating a search spectrum which represents an estimated noise component of the smoothed magnitude spectrum; and calculating an identification ratio which represents a ratio of a noise component included in the input noisy speech signal, by using the smoothed magnitude spectrum and the search spectrum. Since a small amount of calculation is required and a large-capacity memory is not required, the present invention may be easily implemented as hardware or software. Also, since an adaptive operation is performed with respect to each frequency sub-band, the accuracy of determining a noise state may be improved.
