One of the main difficulties in echo cancellation is the fact that the learning rate needs to vary according to conditions such as double-talk and echo path change. Several methods have been proposed to vary the learning. In this paper we…
The robustness of the Kalman filter to double talk and its rapid convergence make it a popular approach for addressing acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) challenges. However, the inability to model nonlinearity and the need to tune control…
Traditionally, adaptive filters have been deployed to achieve AEC by estimating the acoustic echo response using algorithms such as the Normalized Least-Mean-Square (NLMS) algorithm. Several approaches have been proposed over recent years…
Distortion resulting from acoustic echo suppression (AES) is a common issue in full-duplex communication. To address the distortion problem, a multi-frame minimum variance distortionless response (MFMVDR) filtering technique is proposed.…
The attenuation of acoustic loudspeaker echoes remains to be one of the open challenges to achieve pleasant full-duplex hands free speech communication. In many modern signal enhancement interfaces, this problem is addressed by a linear…
Echo cancellation and noise reduction are essential for full-duplex communication, yet most existing neural networks have high computational costs and are inflexible in tuning model complexity. In this paper, we introduce time-frequency…
This paper applies the dual-signal transformation LSTM network (DTLN) to the task of real-time acoustic echo cancellation (AEC). The DTLN combines a short-time Fourier transformation and a learned feature representation in a stacked network…
Echo path delay (or ref-delay) estimation is a big challenge in acoustic echo cancellation. Different devices may introduce various ref-delay in practice. Ref-delay inconsistency slows down the convergence of adaptive filters, and also…
Kalman filtering is a powerful approach to adaptive filtering for various problems in signal processing. The frequency-domain adaptive Kalman filter (FDKF), based on the concept of the acoustic state space, provides a unifying solution to…
Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) whose aim is to suppress the echo originated from acoustic coupling between loudspeakers and microphones, plays a key role in voice interaction. Linear adaptive filter (AF) is always used for handling this…
We propose a nonlinear acoustic echo cancellation system, which aims to model the echo path from the far-end signal to the near-end microphone in two parts. Inspired by the physical behavior of modern hands-free devices, we first introduce…
Adaptive filtering algorithms are commonplace in signal processing and have wide-ranging applications from single-channel denoising to multi-channel acoustic echo cancellation and adaptive beamforming. Such algorithms typically operate via…
Acoustic echo degrades the user experience in voice communication systems thus needs to be suppressed completely. We propose a real-time residual acoustic echo suppression (RAES) method using an efficient convolutional neural network. The…

This paper introduces a dual-signal transformation LSTM network (DTLN) for real-time speech enhancement as part of the Deep Noise Suppression Challenge (DNS-Challenge). This approach combines a short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and a…
The Kalman filter has been adopted in acoustic echo cancellation due to its robustness to double-talk, fast convergence, and good steady-state performance. The performance of Kalman filter is closely related to the estimation accuracy of…
Negative transfer in training of acoustic models for automatic speech recognition has been reported in several contexts such as domain change or speaker characteristics. This paper proposes a novel technique to overcome negative transfer by…
Doubletalk detector (DTD) is essential to keep adaptive filter from diverging in the presence of near-end speech in acoustic echo cancellation (AEC), and there was a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) to characterize DTD performance.…
Although today's speech communication systems support various bandwidths from narrowband to super-wideband and beyond, state-of-the art DNN methods for acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) are lacking modularity and bandwidth scalability. Our…
