Description
Summary:In this paper bootstrap resampling techniques are applied to assess speech quality and thereby evaluate performance of distinct speech enhancement algorithms, under the assumption that the speech segments can be approximated by an autoregressive model. A bootstrap-based multiple hypotheses testing procedure is constructed to test a distance measure based on linear predictive coding, which is the log-likelihood ratio distance. It is shown that the multiple hypotheses test results correlate well with conventional numerical distance measures, which suggests the applicability of the proposed procedure in assessment of speech quality as well as speech enhancement algorithms.
