Q: How do you calculate SNR in Speech Quality Estimation?

A: Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) is an important metric of whether a recording is worth further processing by other speech technologies, so it is part of our Speech Quality Estimation. However, calculating SNR automatically is not a trivial task. We use the fact that the statistical distribution of the frequencies in the waveform of speech has Gamma distribution. In contrast, noise…

Speech Quality Estimation (SQE)

…of an empty recording SNR would divide by zero => is_valid would be false waveform_snr – the signal to noise ratio (SNR) describes the ratio of the useful signal to the noise signal it is measured in dB calculated from the waveform distribution, (silence – has Gaussian distribution, voice – has Gamma distribution); SNR = 20 * log10(S/N) technical signal…

The beginning of the recording can then be recognized with high accuracy too. in FAQ Speech Platform Permalink Q: How do you calculate SNR in Speech Quality Estimation?

Waveform Denoiser (DENOISER)

…It is advisable to use the technology after the acoustic quality check of recordings. If some technical information indicates, for example, low values of signal-to-noise ration (SNR), it is advisable to divert the recording directly into the Denoiser technology to automatic noise reduction. On the other hand, it is not appropriate to send an automatically reconstructed recording subsequently to STT…

Input audio quality

Quality of the audio is extremely important for satisfactory results of any speech processing technology, being it simple voice activity detection, speech transcription, voice biometry, or other. There are two main aspects of audio quality: technical quality of the audio data (format, codec, bitrate, SNR, …) sound quality of the actual content (background noise, reverberations, …) Technical quality Using inappropriate…
