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 improvement in terms of better speech qualities can be achieved by the proposed sigmoid filter when working under various SNR conditions.

Abstract

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.
