Abstract :
In this study, we propose a new speech enhancement based on the trended HMM. The trended HMM is a nonstationary state HMM for modeling nonstationary speech. The proposed method is a recursive method based on frame-by-frame using a Kalman filter with LP parameters controlled by a Markov switching sequence. Experimental results clearly show the superior performance of the proposed method over the standard HMM based method
