description | Embodiments are disclosed for noise floor estimation and noise reduction, In an embodiment, a method comprises: obtaining an audio signal; dividing the audio signal into a plurality of buffers; determining time-frequency samples for each buffer of the audio signal; for each buffer and for each frequency, determining a median (or mean) and a measure of an amount of variation of energy based on the samples in the buffer and samples in neighboring buffers that together span a specified time range of the audio signal; combining the median (or mean) and the measure of the amount of variation of energy into a cost function; for each frequency: determining a signal energy of a particular buffer of the audio signal that corresponds to a minimum value of the cost function; selecting the signal energy as the estimated noise floor of the audio signal; and reducing, using the estimated noise floor, noise in the audio signal. |
