Abstract
In this paper spectral subtractive method and some of its modification are compared. Performance of spectral subtraction, its limitations, artifacts introduced by it, and spectral subtraction modifications for eliminating these artifacts are discussed in the paper in details. The algorithms are compared based on SNR improvement introduced by them. Spectrograms of speech enhanced by the algorithms, which show the algorithms performance and degree of speech distortion, are also presented.
