A Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network for Real-Time Speech Enhancement

This repository provides an implementation of the convolutional recurrent network (CRN) for monaural speech enhancement, developed in "A convolutional recurrent neural network for real-time speech enhancement", Proceedings of Interspeech, pp. 3229-3233, 2018. In the paper, a causal convolutional recurrent network was proposed to perform spectral mapping, which combines a convolutional encoder-decoder and long short-term memory.

Installation

The program is developed using Python 3.7. Clone this repo, and install the dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/JupiterEthan/CRN-causal.git
cd CRN-causal
pip install -r requirements.txt

Data preparation

To use this program, data and file lists need to be prepared. If configured correctly, the directory tree should look like this:

.
├── data
│   └── datasets
│       ├── cv
│       │   └── cv.ex
│       ├── tr
│       │   ├── tr_0.ex
│       │   ├── tr_1.ex
│       │   ├── tr_2.ex
│       │   ├── tr_3.ex
│       │   └── tr_4.ex
│       └── tt
│           ├── tt_snr0.ex
│           ├── tt_snr-5.ex

You will find that some files above are missing in your directory tree. Those are for you to prepare. Don't worry. Follow these instructions:

  1. Write your own scripts to prepare data for training, validation and testing.

    • For the training set, each example needs to be saved into an HDF5 file, which contains two HDF5 datasets, named mix and sph respectively. mix stores a noisy mixture utterance, sph the corresponding clean speech utterance.

      • Example code: 
        import os

import h5py
import numpy as np


# some settings
...
rms = 1.0

for idx in range(n_tr_ex): # n_tr_ex is the number of training examples 
    # generate a noisy mixture
    ...
    mix = sph + noi
    # normalize
    c = rms * np.sqrt(mix.size / np.sum(mix**2))
    mix *= c
    sph *= c

    filename = 'tr_{}.ex'.format(idx)
    writer = h5py.File(os.path.join(filepath, filename), 'w')
    writer.create_dataset('mix', data=mix.astype(np.float32), shape=mix.shape, chunks=True)
    writer.create_dataset('sph', data=sph.astype(np.float32), shape=sph.shape, chunks=True)
    writer.close()

    • For the validation set, all examples need to be saved into a single HDF5 file, each of which is stored in a HDF5 group. Each group contains two HDF5 datasets, one named mix and the other named sph.

      • Example code: 
        import os

import h5py
import numpy as np


# some settings
...
rms = 1.0

filename = 'cv.ex'
writer = h5py.File(os.path.join(filepath, filename), 'w')
for idx in range(n_cv_ex):
    # generate a noisy mixture
    ...
    mix = sph + noi
    # normalize
    c = rms * np.sqrt(mix.size / np.sum(mix**2))
    mix *= c
    sph *= c

    writer_grp = writer.create_group(str(count))
    writer_grp.create_dataset('mix', data=mix.astype(np.float32), shape=mix.shape, chunks=True)
    writer_grp.create_dataset('sph', data=sph.astype(np.float32), shape=sph.shape, chunks=True)
writer.close()

    • For the test set(s), all examples (in each condition) need to be saved into a single HDF5 file, each of which is stored in a HDF5 group. Each group contains two HDF5 datasets, one named mix and the other named sph.

      • Example code: 
        import os

import h5py
import numpy as np


# some settings
...
rms = 1.0

filename = 'tt_snr-5.ex'
writer = h5py.File(os.path.join(filepath, filename), 'w')
for idx in range(n_cv_ex):
    # generate a noisy mixture
    ...
    mix = sph + noi
    # normalize
    c = rms * np.sqrt(mix.size / np.sum(mix**2))
    mix *= c
    sph *= c

    writer_grp = writer.create_group(str(count))
    writer_grp.create_dataset('mix', data=mix.astype(np.float32), shape=mix.shape, chunks=True)
    writer_grp.create_dataset('sph', data=sph.astype(np.float32), shape=sph.shape, chunks=True)
writer.close()

    • In the example code above, the root mean square power of the mixture is normalized to 1. The same scaling factor is applied to clean speech.

  2. Generate the file lists for training and test sets, and save them into a folder named filelists. See examples/filelists for the examples.

How to run

  1. Change the directory: cd scripts. Remember that this is your working directory. All paths and commands below are relative to it.
  2. Check utils/networks.py for the GCRN configurations. By default, G=2 (see the original paper) is used for LSTM grouping.
  3. Train the model: ./run_train.sh. By default, a directory named exp will be automatically generated. Two model files will be generated under exp/models/: latest.pt(the model from the latest checkpoint) and best.pt(the model that performs best on the validation set by far). latest.pt can be used to resume training if interrupted, and best.pt is typically used for testing. You can check the loss values in exp/loss.txt.
  4. Evaluate the model: ./run_evaluate.sh. WAV files will be generated under ../data/estimates. STOI, PESQ and SNR results will be written into three files under exp: stoi_scores.log, pesq_scores.log and snr_scores.log.
