METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE OBJECTIVE EVALUATION OF THE VOICE QUALITY OF A SPEECH SIGNAL TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE CLASSIFICATION OF THE BACKGROUND NOISE CONTAINED IN THE SIGNAL

摘要

A method and device are provided for the objective evaluation of voice quality of a speech signal. The device includes: a module for extracting a background noise signal, referred to as a noise signal, from the speech signal; a module for calculating the audio parameters of the noise signal; a module for classifying the background noise contained in the noise signal on the basis of the calculated audio parameters, according to a predefined set of background noise classes; and a module for evaluating the voice quality of the speech signal on the basis of at least the resulting classification relative to the background noise in the speech signal.
