Abstract
A signal-processing device includes a determination section that compares a frequency spectrum and a floor spectrum of an input audio signal to each other for each frequency bin and determines whether the input audio signal should be subjected to noise reduction processing or not for each of the frequency bins; and a noise reduction-processing section that subtracts a noise frequency spectrum from the frequency spectrum of the input audio signal for each of the frequency bins on the basis of the result determined by the determination section for each of the frequency bins.
