Re: evaluation of speech enhancement algorithm. How?



Hi,

You might be able to compare your algorithm with the articulation index
(AI). The result is a scalar value between 0 and 1 (0= speech not
understandable at all, 1=100% speech recognition). In summary, these
models try to predict human speech recognition scores. Which is a
psychoacoutic model of how intelligible speech is given the long term
speech/noise spectrum and the system's response. These, however, like I
said, will require the long term average of your speech (which you
might not be interested in using). There is a free matlab file the
calculates the AI with additional information about it at:

They use non-sense syllable for the estimation. If you signal is speech
you will need to apply a context transformation in the end of it to
compensate for the less entropy.
