In this paper two methodsare investigated to control the speech distortion by comparing the eigenvector beamformer with a maximum likelihood beamformer: One is an analytic solution for the ideal case of absence of reverberation and the other one is a statistically motivated approach. We use the recently introduced gradient-ascent algorithm for adaptive principal eigenvector beamforming and then normalize the filter coefficient s by the proposed distortion control methods. Experimental results in terms of the achievable SNR gain and a perceptual speech quality measure are given for the normalized eigenvector beamformer and are compared to standard beamforming methods."}],"oa":"1","year":"2006","status":"public","date_updated":"2022-01-06T06:51:12Z","type":"conference","publication":"International Workshop on Acoustic Echo and Noise Control (IWAENC 2006)","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://groups.uni-paderborn.de/nt/pubs/2006/WaHa06-2.pdf"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}
