Reverberation as supervision (RAS) is a framework that allows for training monaural speech separation models from multi-channel mixtures in an unsupervised manner. In RAS, models are trained so that sources predicted from a mixture at an…

Audio source separation aims to separate a mixture into target sources. Previous audio source separation systems usually conduct one-step inference, which does not fully explore the separation ability of models. In this work, we reveal that…

We introduce a new paradigm for single-channel target source separation where the sources of interest can be distinguished using non-mutually exclusive concepts (e.g., loudness, gender, language, spatial location, etc). Our proposed…

Recently, deep clustering (DPCL) based speaker-independent speech separation has drawn much attention, since it needs little speaker prior information. However, it still has much room of improvement, particularly in reverberant…

Conditional sound separation in multi-source audio mixtures without having access to single source sound data during training is a long standing challenge. Existing mix-and-separate based methods suffer from significant performance drop…
