This paper presents the contribution to the third 'CHiME' speech separation and recognition challenge including both front-end signal processing and back-end speech recognition. In the front-end, Multi-channel Wiener filter (MWF) is…
This paper introduces a novel low-latency online beamforming (BF) algorithm, named Modified Parametric Multichannel Wiener Filter (Mod-PMWF), for enhancing speech mixtures with unknown and varying number of speakers. Although conventional…
In this paper, we study several microphone channel selection and weighting methods for robust automatic speech recognition (ASR) in noisy conditions. For channel selection, we investigate two methods based on the maximum likelihood (ML)…
Acoustic beamforming models typically assume wide-sense stationarity of speech signals within short time frames. However, voiced speech is better modeled as a cyclostationary (CS) process, a random process whose mean and autocorrelation are…
Noise suppression and speech distortion are two important aspects to be balanced when designing multi-channel Speech Enhancement (SE) algorithms. Although neural network models have achieved state-of-the-art noise suppression, their…

This paper describes multichannel speech enhancement for improving automatic speech recognition (ASR) in noisy environments. Recently, the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamforming has widely been used because it works…
In this contribution to the 3rd CHiME Speech Separation and Recognition Challenge (CHiME-3) we extend the acoustic front-end of the CHiME-3 baseline speech recognition system by a coherence-based Wiener filter which is applied to the output…
The multichannel Wiener filter (MWF) and its variations have been extensively applied to binaural hearing aids. However, its major drawback is the distortion of the binaural cues of the residual noise, changing the original acoustic…
Casual conversations involving multiple speakers and noises from surrounding devices are common in everyday environments, which degrades the performances of automatic speech recognition systems. These challenging characteristics of…
Far-field speech recognition in noisy and reverberant conditions remains a challenging problem despite recent deep learning breakthroughs. This problem is commonly addressed by acquiring a speech signal from multiple microphones and…
Multi-frame algorithms for single-channel speech enhancement are able to take advantage from short-time correlations within the speech signal. Deep filtering (DF) recently demonstrated its capabilities for low-latency scenarios like hearing…
Two algorithms for combined acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) and noise reduction (NR) are analysed, namely the generalised echo and interference canceller (GEIC) and the extended multichannel Wiener filter (MWFext). Previously, these…
Frequency-domain beamformers have been successful in a wide range of multi-channel neural separation systems in the past years. However, the operations in conventional frequency-domain beamformers are typically independently-defined and…

This paper describes our submission to the L3DAS22 Challenge Task 1, which consists of speech enhancement with 3D Ambisonic microphones. The core of our approach combines Deep Neural Network (DNN) driven complex spectral mapping with linear…
This paper evaluates the robustness of a DNN-HMM-based speech recognition system in highly-reverberant real environments using the HRRE database. The performance of locally-normalized filter bank (LNFB) and Mel filter bank (MelFB) features…
In this letter, we propose enhanced factored three way restricted Boltzmann machines (EFTW-RBMs) for speech detection. The proposed model incorporates conditional feature learning by multiplying the dynamical state of the third unit, which…
Speech recognition in adverse real-world environments is highly affected by reverberation and nonstationary background noise. A well-known strategy to reduce such undesired signal components in multi-microphone scenarios is spatial…
Speech representation and modelling in high-dimensional spaces of acoustic waveforms, or a linear transformation thereof, is investigated with the aim of improving the robustness of automatic speech recognition to additive noise. The…
