Comparative Evaluation of Single-Channel MMSE-Based Noise Reduction Schemes for Speech Recognition

One of the big challenges in the field of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) consists in developing suitable solutions able to work properly also in adverse acoustic conditions, like in presence of additive noise and/or in reverberant rooms. Recently a certain attention has been paid to deeply integ...
