초록

본 논문에서는 유성음/무성음 분리를 이용하여 잡음처리를 한다. 유성음과 무성음은 음성의 하나의 중요한 특징으로 유성음과 무성음 부분에 각각 같은 잡음처리기법을 삼는 것이 아니라 각각의 성질을 고려하여 잡음처리를 하였다. 유성음/무성음의 분리는 영 교차율과 에너지를 이용하여 구해 졌으며, 유성음/무성음 분리정보를 토대로 하여 변형된 음성/잡음우세결정방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 백색 잡음과 비행기 잡음에 오염된 음성문장에 대해 성능평가가 이루어졌다. 그리고 다양한 입력 신호대잡음비 (SNR)로 오염된 문장에 대해 세그멘탈 신호대잡음비를 구하고, 듣기 평가를 통해 기존의 방법보다 향상된 성능을 가짐을 알 수 있다.

In this paper, a nobel method to reduce noise using voice/unvoice classification is proposed. Voice and unvoice are an important feature of speech and the proposed method processes noisy speech differently for each voice/unvoice part. Speech is classified into voice/unvoice using zero-crossing rate and energy, and a modified speech/noise dominant-decision is proposed based on voice/unvoice classification. The proposed method was tested on conditions of white noise and airplane noise, and on the basis of comparing segmental SNR with the existing method and listening to the enhanced speech, a performance of the proposed method was superior to that of the existing method.
