Abstract

See full text

The present disclosure relates to sibilance detection and mitigation in a voice signal. A method of sibilance detection and mitigation is described. In the method, a predetermined spectrum feature is extracted from a voice signal, the predetermined spectrum feature representing a distribution of signal energy over a voice frequency band. Sibilance is then identified based on the predetermined spectrum feature. Excessive sibilance is further identified from the identified sibilance based on a level of the identified sibilance. Then the voice signal is processed by decreasing a level of the excessive sibilance so as to suppress the excessive sibilance. Corresponding system and computer program products are described as well.
