Implementations include systems, methods and/or devices operable to enhance the intelligibility of a target speech signal by targeted voice model based processing of a noisy audible signal. In some implementations, an amplitude-independent voice proximity function voice model is used to attenuate signal components of a noisy audible signal that are unlikely to be associated with the target speech signal and/or accentuate the target speech signal. In some implementations, the target speech signal is identified as a near-field signal, which is detected by identifying a prominent train of glottal pulses in the noisy audible signal. Subsequently, in some implementations systems, methods and/or devices perform a form of computational auditory scene analysis by converting the noisy audible signal into a set of narrowband time-frequency units, and selectively accentuating the time-frequency units associated with the target speech signal and deemphasizing others using information derived from the identification of the glottal pulse train.
