Speech Signal Enhancement by Information Combining
Mobile phones as well as tablets are omnipresent and belong to everyday life.Today audiovisual communication takes place at different locations and in a large variety of acoustic environments.In consequence, the intelligibility as well as the quality of speech may significantly be degraded by ambient background noise.In order to improve speech intelligibility and to ensure a convenient communication with high audio quality, speech enhancement techniques are required.In this thesis all critical components contributing to the enhancement of the up-link signal are addressed:• signal capturing at the acoustic front-end with a new near field beamformer• new codebook based speech and noise estimation procedure generating and exploiting reliability information, and• actual noise reduction exploiting spectral dependencies of human speech. For the acoustic front-end of the digital processing chain a novel concept for the filter optimization of a near field beamformer is introduced.The optimization scheme allows to closely approximate a predefined reception characteristic which can be freely chosen according to the application.The output of the beamformer provides a pre-enhanced signal with improved SNR for subsequent single-microphone based speech enhancement. Single-microphone noise reduction usually relies on statistical properties of speech and noise.In general, the noise is assumed to be stationary or only slightly time-varying, which is in practice often not fulfilled.Due to imprecise noise estimation, single-microphone systems are prone to unpleasant artifacts that are called musical tones.In this context different Information Combining methods, merging various estimates, are presented which address specifically the problem of non-stationary noise signals, leading to a significant improved estimation accuracy.On the one hand, the proposed Information Combining is used with respect to spectral dependencies of human speech.On the other hand, it merges the best of several speech and noise estimates depending on their reliability.The necessary estimates are provided by a new statistical noise estimator as well as a codebook driven speech and noise estimation algorithm.The achieved estimation quality opens up the possibility to close the gap between the conflicting goals of high noise attenuation, low speech distortion, and the prevention of undesired musical tone artifacts.Finally, the practical aspects of the proposed enhancement systems are considered and discussed with two implemented real-time demonstrators.

Digital Image Enhancement and Reconstruction
Digital Image Enhancement and Reconstruction: Techniques and Applications explores different concepts and techniques used for the enhancement as well as reconstruction of low-quality images.Most real-life applications require good quality images to gain maximum performance, however, the quality of the images captured in real-world scenarios is often very unsatisfactory.Most commonly, images are noisy, blurry, hazy, tiny, and hence need to pass through image enhancement and/or reconstruction algorithms before they can be processed by image analysis applications.This book comprehensively explores application-specific enhancement and reconstruction techniques including satellite image enhancement, face hallucination, low-resolution face recognition, medical image enhancement and reconstruction, reconstruction of underwater images, text image enhancement, biometrics, etc.Chapters will present a detailed discussion of the challenges faced in handling each particular kind of image, analysis of the best available solutions, and an exploration of applications and future directions.The book provides readers with a deep dive into denoising, dehazing, super-resolution, and use of soft computing across a range of engineering applications.

Digital Enhancement of Speech Perception in Noisy Environments
In many everyday situations, people try to listen to speech from a loudspeaker, but the speech perception is affected by background noise.The location of a listener is called the near-end. Some applications in which this problem arises are mobile phones, public address systems, car entertainment systems, hearing aids, or head phones.Depending on the application, the speech may either be a recording, or, in case of communication systems, it may come live from a person speaking at the so-called far-end.Although it is usually not possible to cancel the near-end noise source, the speech perception can be enhanced nevertheless by adaptively pre-processing the loudspeaker signal.To find out in which way the speech should be pre-processed, it is beneficial to know the near-end noise characteristics and take them into account.The knowledge can be gained from a near-end microphone that is located close to the listener.This pre-processing technique is called Near-End Listening Enhancement (NELE).In this work several NELE concepts are developed and studied with the goal of enhancing the speech perception.Afterwards, a computationally very efficient and real-time capable NELE algorithm is developed, which can be implemented on signal processors and integrated into low-power devices. When deploying these enhancement concepts, additional problems may arise depending on the application.Two of them are studied in detail:1. If the near-end loudspeaker and microphone are placed close to each other, which might occur at public address systems for instance, the speech from the loudspeaker is coupled into the near-end microphone as crosstalk and disturbs the estimation of the noise characteristics.An analysis of this arrangement shows that the functionality of the NELE algorithm is strongly affected.As a solution, it is proposed to use a new noise estimation technique which provides significantly more accurate noise estimates than state-of-the-art approaches by taking the adaptively predicted crosstalk into account. 2. Especially in the case of mobile communication, it is possible that a noise source is present also at the far-end.Consequently, the speech signal from the far-end is disturbed by noise.Typical mobile phones attenuate the far-end noise by employing techniques of noise reduction (NR) before transmitting the signal to the near-end.At the receiving near-end device, the denoised speech signal would then be processed by NELE to improve the speech perception, based only on the near-end noise.It is shown that NR and NELE counteract each other which results in unpleasant speech with strong artifacts.General solutions are proposed to perform NR and NELE under joint control or even jointly at the near-end or the far-end or within the network.

Do sweets have a negative impact on performance enhancement?
Consuming sweets in moderation can provide a quick source of energy, which may be beneficial for performance enhancement in certain situations, such as during endurance activities or high-intensity workouts. However, excessive consumption of sweets can lead to a spike in blood sugar levels followed by a crash, which can negatively impact performance and energy levels. Additionally, a diet high in sweets and added sugars can contribute to weight gain and other health issues, which can ultimately hinder overall performance. It's important to strike a balance and consider the timing and quantity of sweets consumed in relation to performance goals.
