Abstract
The major drawback of most noise reduction methods in speech applications is the annoying residual noise known as musical noise. A potential solution to this artifact is the incorporation of a human hearing model in the suppression filter design. However, since the available models are usually developed in the frequency domain, it is not clear how they can be applied in the signal subspace approach for speech enhancement. In this paper, we present a Frequency to Eigendomain Transformation (FET) which permits to calculate a perceptually based eigenfilter. This filter yields an improved result where better shaping of the residual noise, from a perceptual perspective, is achieved. The proposed method can also be used with the general case of colored noise. Spectrogram illustrations and listening test results are given to show the superiority of the proposed method over the conventional signal subspace approach.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
