A hybrid descent method for optimal sigmoid filter design

In this letter, a hybrid descent method is used to determine a set of filter parameters for a sigmoid filter which attempts to work under various SNR conditions. It overcomes the limitations of the current sigmoid filters that performs effectively only at a single SNR. Results show that significant...

description In this letter, a hybrid descent method is used to determine a set of filter parameters for a sigmoid filter which attempts to work under various SNR conditions. It overcomes the limitations of the current sigmoid filters that performs effectively only at a single SNR. Results show that significant improvement in terms of better speech qualities can be achieved by the proposed sigmoid filter when working under various SNR conditions.
