In speech enhancement, an end-to-end deep neural network converts a noisy speech signal to a clean speech directly in time domain without time-frequency transformation or mask estimation. However, aggregating contextual information from a high-resolution time domain signal with an affordable model complexity still remains challenging. In this paper, we propose a densely connected convolutional and recurrent network (DCCRN), a hybrid architecture, to enable dual-staged temporal context aggregation. With the dense connectivity and cross-component identical shortcut, DCCRN consistently outperforms competing convolutional baselines with an average STOI improvement of 0.23 and PESQ of 1.38 at three SNR levels. The proposed method is computationally efficient with only 1.38 million parameters. The generalizability performance on the unseen noise types is still decent considering its low complexity, although it is relatively weaker comparing to Wave-U-Net with 7.25 times more parameters.
