Recent research indicates that the speech spectral amplitude distributions could
be fairly described with super-Gaussian probability density function. However, the complexity
of speech signal determines that the distribution statistics ofspeech signal could not be well
described by single simple function. Thus a super-Gaussian mixture model for speech spectral
amplitude is proposed, and with this model, a minimum mean-square error (MMSE) estimator for speech
signals spectral amplitude is derived. The simulation results show that this algorithm based on
Gaussian and super-Gaussian speech model could achieve better noise suppression and lower speech
distortion as compared with the conventional short-time spectral amplitude estimation algorithm.
