Abstract: A system for estimating the background noise in a loudspeaker-room-microphone system is presented herein where the loudspeaker is supplied with a source signal and the microphone picks up the source signal distorted by the room and provides a distorted signal. The system comprises an adaptive filter receiving the source signal and the distorted signal, and providing an error signal, a post filter connected downstream of the adaptive filter and a smoothing arrangement connected downstream of the adaptive filter. The smoothing arrangement comprises a first smoothing filter operating in the spectral domain and providing an estimated-noise signal in the spectral domain, and a second smoothing filter operating in the time domain and providing an estimated-noise signal in the time domain. A scaling factor calculation unit connected downstream of the two smoothing filters provides a scaling factor to a scaling unit that applies the scaling factor to the estimated-noise signal in the spectral domain to provide an enhanced estimated-noise signal in the spectral domain.

Abstract: The rapid depth testing for hidden surface removal in graphics processing may be achieved by depth testing representative pixels of a group of pixels. In one embodiment, the worst case pixels of a group of pixels can be identified. The worst case pixels can then be compared to worst case values stored in a hierarchical Z-buffer. Depending on the results, the entire set of pixels of the group may pass or fail the depth test. As a result, in some cases, it is not necessary to depth test every pixel.
