The NMF-based technique works by finding a sparse representation of specrogram segments of noisy speech in a dictionary containing both speech and noise exemplars, and uses the activated dictionary atoms to create a time-varying filter to enhance the noisy speech. In order to take into account larger temporal context and constrain the representation by the grammar of a speech recognizer, we propose to regularize the optimization problem by additionally minimizing the distance between state emission probabilities derived from the speech exemplar activations, and a posteriori state probabilities derived by applying the Forward-Backward algorithm to the emission probabilities. Experiments on Track 1 of the 2nd CHiME Challenge, which contains small vocabulary speech corrupted by both reverberation and authentic living room noise at varying SNRs ranging from 9 to -6 dB, confirm the validity of the proposed technique.", booktitle = "Proceedings of the 2nd CHiME workshop", keywords = "speech enhancement;exemplar-based;noise robustness;Non-Negative Matrix Factorization;Hidden Markov Models", month = "June", pages = "47-52", title = "{HMM}-{R}egularization for {NMF}-{B}ased {N}oise {R}obust {ASR}", url = "https://spandh.dcs.shef.ac.uk/chime_workshop/papers/pP5_gemmeke.pdf", year = "2013", }
