About The Book
Speech Enhancement: Theory and Practice, Second Edition by Philipos C. Loizou is a groundbreaking resource that addresses the ever-growing need for algorithms to improve speech intelligibility, especially in the presence of noise. This updated and expanded edition is essential for anyone interested in the fields of speech processing, hearing aids, cochlear implants, and mobile devices.
The book is divided into four major sections, beginning with the fundamentals necessary to understand and design effective speech enhancement algorithms. The second part focuses on the enhancement algorithms themselves, including algorithms that estimate noise spectra. In the third section, the author delves into evaluation measures, assessing both speech quality and intelligibility, while comparing several enhancement methods. The final section presents binary mask algorithms for improving intelligibility in ideal conditions, while also outlining strategies to apply these algorithms effectively in real-world scenarios.
What makes this edition stand out is its wealth of updates. Every chapter has been enhanced with new insights, including a new chapter dedicated to objective speech intelligibility measures. Another chapter introduces advanced algorithms aimed at improving speech intelligibility. Additionally, the book includes real-world noise recordings (available for download) and MATLAB® code for the implementation of intelligibility measures and algorithms, making it a hands-on resource for students and professionals alike.
Written by a leading pioneer in speech enhancement and noise reduction, particularly for cochlear implants, this book offers invaluable knowledge for anyone seeking to implement cutting-edge speech enhancement techniques.
