Abstract :
Surrounded noises degrade both audio and video qualities in a multimedia environment. This paper applies Gabor expansion to passive noise reduction of speech signals. The noise reduction method and performance via Gabor expansion are studied. The Gabor expansion with Gaussian prototype function has a property that its time and frequency product is minimal. The property makes the noise-only segment more clearly and the noise estimate more robustly.
