Abstract

In this paper, a novel sound denoising approach based on a statistical model of the power spectrogram of a sound signal is proposed by using an extended non-negative sparse coding (NNSC) algorithm for power spectra. This approach is self-adaptive to the statistic property of spectrograms of sounds. The basic idea for denoising is to exploit a shrinkage function to reduce noises in spectrogram patches. Experimental results show that our approach is indeed effective and efficient in spectrogram denoising. Compared with other denoising methods, the simulation results show that the NNSC shrinkage technique is indeed effective and efficient.
