Robust Speech Enhancement Techniques for ASR in Non-stationary Noise and Dynamic Environments Gang Liu 1*, Dimitrios Dimitriadis2, Enrico Bocchieri2 1 Center for Robust Speech Systems, University of Texas at Dallas, Richardson, Texas 75083 2 ATT Research, 180 Park Ave, Florham Park, New Jersey 07932 gang.liu@, {ddim, enrico}@ Abstract In the current ASR systems the presence of competing speakers greatly degrades the recognition performance. This phenomenon is getting even more prominent in the case of hands-free, far-field ASR systems like the “Smart-TV” systems, where reverberation and
