Abstract
At least one signal is received that represents speech and noise. In response to the at least one signal, frequency bands are generated of an output channel that represents the speech while attenuating at least some of the noise from the at least one signal. Within a kth frequency band of the at least one signal: a first ratio is determined of a clean version of the speech for a preceding time frame to the noise for the preceding time frame; and a second ratio is determined of a noisy version of the speech for the time frame n to the noise for the time frame n. In response to the first and second ratios, a gain is determined for the kth frequency band of the output channel for the time frame n.
