Abstract

A noise suppression system includes an a priori S/N ratio estimated value and expectation calculation unit that acquires an expectation of a priori S/N ratio, by correcting an estimated value of the a priori S/N ratio relating to a signal and a noise based on a priori S/N ratio model or based on a signal model and a noise model, the signal and the noise being estimated from an input signal in which the signal and the noise are mixed; a noise suppression coefficient calculation unit that calculates a noise suppression coefficient with use of the expectation of the a priori S/N ratio; and a noise suppression unit that suppresses the noise included in the input signal by multiplying the input signal by the noise suppression coefficient.
