An incremental algorithm based on multichannel non-negative matrix partial co-factorization for ambient denoising in auscultation
- 利用双通道重复噪声建模,通过非负矩阵部分协同分解分离生物信号与噪声。
- 在信噪比低至-5 dB时,相比传统方法保持更稳定的音质提升效果。
- 对输入延迟具有强鲁棒性,适合临床真实场景中设备不同步的情况。
本研究旨在实现听诊过程中生物声学信号在高噪声环境下的去噪。提出一种基于多通道非负矩阵部分协同分解(NMPCF)的增量式方法,针对信噪比(SNR)≤ -5 dB的高噪声环境。首先,假设背景噪声为多个通道中同时出现的重复声学事件,利用双单通道输入(来自不同设备采集)进行建模;其次,设计一种增量算法,在多个阶段逐步消除前一阶段残留的噪声,同时最大限度保留生物信号频谱内容。在模拟医疗诊室典型噪声环境下(SNR从-20 dB到-5 dB),采用混合了生物声与背景噪声的录音集评估性能。实验结果表明:(i)该方法性能下降幅度低于MSS和NLMS;(ii)无论噪声类型或信噪比如何,平均信号失真比(SDR)和信号干扰比(SIR)均呈稳定趋势;(iii)当两路输入存在时间延迟时,仍能保持良好的生物信号重建鲁棒性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The aim of this study is to implement a method to remove ambient noise in biomedical sounds captured in auscultation. We propose an incremental approach based on multichannel non-negative matrix partial co-factorization (NMPCF) for ambient denoising focusing on high noisy environment with a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) <= -5 dB. The first contribution applies NMPCF assuming that ambient noise can be modelled as repetitive sound events simultaneously found in two single-channel inputs captured by means of different recording devices. The second contribution proposes an incremental algorithm, based on the previous multichannel NMPCF, that refines the estimated biomedical spectrogram throughout a set of incremental stages by eliminating most of the ambient noise that was not removed in the previous stage at the expense of preserving most of the biomedical spectral content. The ambient denoising performance of the proposed method, compared to some of the most relevant state-of-the-art methods, has been evaluated using a set of recordings composed of biomedical sounds mixed with ambient noise that typically surrounds a medical consultation room to simulate high noisy environments with a SNR from -20 dB to -5 dB. Experimental results report that: (i) the performance drop suffered by the proposed method is lower compared to MSS and NLMS; (ii) unlike what happens with MSS and NLMS, the proposed method shows a stable trend of the average SDR and SIR results regardless of the type of ambient noise and the SNR level evaluated; and (iii) a remarkable advantage is the high robustness of the estimated biomedical sounds when the two single-channel inputs suffer from a delay between them.
