Frequency-Domain Volterra Filter Based on Data-Driven Soft Decision for Nonlinear Acoustic Echo Suppression
Jihwan Park, Joon‐Hyuk Chang · IEEE Signal Processing Letters · 2014
In this letter, we propose a novel frequency-domain second-order Volterra filter based on soft decision for nonlinear acoustic echo suppression. This letter offers an efficient algorithm for nonlinear echo power estimation using the second-order Volterra filter and an AES algorithm using the estimated nonlinear echo power spectrum within a soft decision baseline by incorporating the ratio of the a priori probability of near-end speech presence and absence, which is obtained by using a data-driven training method.
