Application of wavelet decomposition is described to speed up the mixed speech signal separation with the help of non-negative matrix factorisation (NMF). It is assumed that the basis vectors of training data of individual speakers had been recorded. In this paper, the spectrogram magnitude of a mixed signal has been factorised with the help of NMF with consideration of sparseness of speech signals. The high frequency components of signal contain very small amount of signal energy. By rejecting the high frequency components, the size of input signal is reduced, which reduces the computational time of matrix factorisation. The signal of lower energy has been separated by using wavelet decomposition. The present work is done for wideband microphone speech signal and standard audio signal from digital video equipment. This shows an improvement in the separation capability using the proposed model as compared with an existing one in terms of correlation between separated and original signals. Obtained signal to distortion ratio (SDR) and signal to interference ratio (SIR) are also larger as compare of the existing model. The proposed model also shows a reduction in computational time, which results in faster operation.

In building speech recognition based applications, robustness to different noisy background condition is an important challenge. In this paper bimodal approach is proposed to improve the robustness of Hindi speech recognition system. Also an importance of different types of visual features is studied for audio visual automatic speech recognition (AVASR) system under diverse noisy audio conditions. Four sets of visual feature based on Two-Dimensional Discrete Cosine Transform feature (2D-DCT), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Two-Dimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform followed by DCT (2D-DWT-DCT) and Two-Dimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform followed by PCA (2D-DWT-PCA) are reported. The audio features are extracted using Mel Frequency Cepstral coefficients (MFCC) followed by static and dynamic feature. Overall, 48 features, i.e. 39 audio features and 9 visual features are used for measuring the performance of the AVASR system. Also, the performance of the AVASR using noisy speech signal generated by using NOISEX database is evaluated for different Signal to Noise ratio (SNR: 30 dB to -10 dB) using Aligarh Muslim University Audio Visual (AMUAV) Hindi corpus. AMUAV corpus is Hindi continuous speech high quality audio visual databases of Hindi sentences spoken by different subjects.
