  • Abstract
    Motivation for using minimum mean square error (MMSE) estimation in noisy speech enhancement problems is given. An MMSE estimator which is based on hidden Markov modeling of the clean signal as well as the noise process is systematically developed. The MMSE estimator is tested and compared with the spectral subtraction estimator in vector quantization of noisy speech signals
