Abstract
In this paper, for real time enhancement of noisy speech, a method of threshold determination based on modeling of Teager energy (TE) operated perceptual wavelet packet (PWP) coefficients of the noisy speech and noise by an Erlang-2 PDF is presented. The proposed method is computationally much faster than the existing wavelet packet based thresholding methods. A custom thresholding function based on a combination of mu-law and semisoft thresholding functions is designed and exploited to apply the statistically derived threshold upon the PWP coefficients. The proposed custom thresholding function works as a mu-law or a semisoft thresholding function or their combination based on the probability of speech presence and absence in a subband of the PWP transformed noisy speech. By using the speech files available in NOIZEUS database, a number of simulations are performed to evaluate the performance of the proposed method for speech signals in the presence of Gaussian white and street noises
