Improved Non-Negative Matrix Factorization-Based Noise Reduction of Leakage Acoustic Signals.

The detection of gas leaks using acoustic signals is often compromised by environmental noise, which significantly impacts the accuracy of subsequent leak identification. Current noise reduction algorithms based on non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) typically utilize the Euclidean distance as their objective function, which can exacerbate noise anomalies. Moreover, these algorithms predominantly rely on simple techniques like Wiener filtering to estimate the amplitude spectrum of pure signals.
