Supervised deep learning approaches to underdetermined audio source separation achieve state-of-the-art performance but require a dataset of mixtures along with their corresponding isolated source signals. Such datasets can be extremely…

Extracting the desired speech from a mixture is a meaningful and challenging task. The end-to-end DNN-based methods, though attractive, face the problem of generalization. In this paper, we explore a sequential approach for target speech…
The complete decomposition performed by blind source separation is computationally demanding and superfluous when only the speech of one specific target speaker is desired. In this paper, we propose a computationally efficient blind speech…
