Experiment One

Estimated Binary Mask

Male Utter + Speech Shaped Noise (SSN) at SNR = 0 (dB)

Uttering: "The small red neon lamp went out"

---

---

Estimated Ratio Mask

Male Utter + cafeteria noise at SNR = 0 (dB)

Uttering: "The fan whirled its round blades softly"

---

---

Experiment Two

Target Speaker

Male Utter + Female Utter at SNR = 0 (dB) + Speech Shaped Noise (SSN)

Uttering: "The dune rose from the edge of the water"

---

---

Experiment Two

Masking Speaker

Male Utter + Female Utter at SNR = 0 (dB) + Speech Shaped Noise (SSN)

Uttering: "A small creek cut across the field"
