The source separation-based speech enhancement problem with multiple beamforming in reverberant indoor environments is addressed in this paper. We propose that more generic solutions should cope with time-varying dynamic scenarios with…

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.…

Recently, the convolutional weighted power minimization distortionless response (WPD) beamformer was proposed, which unifies multi-channel weighted prediction error dereverberation and minimum power distortionless response beamforming. To…

Recent studies have demonstrated that incorporating auxiliary information, such as speaker voiceprint or visual cues, can substantially improve Speech Enhancement (SE) performance. However, single-channel methods often yield suboptimal…

We propose to tackle the multiview photometric stereo problem using an extension of Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs), conditioned on light source direction. The geometric part of our neural representation predicts surface normal direction,…

One of the common algorithms used to reconstruct photoacoustic (PA) images is the non-adaptive Delay-and-Sum (DAS) beamformer. However, the quality of the reconstructed PA images obtained by DAS is not satisfying due to its high level of…

The Relative Transfer Matrix (ReTM), recently introduced as a generalization of the relative transfer function for multiple receivers and sources, shows promising performance when applied to speech enhancement and speaker separation in…

Spotforming is a target-speaker extraction technique that uses multiple microphone arrays. This method applies beamforming (BF) to each microphone array, and the common components among the BF outputs are estimated as the target source.…

The signal to noise ratio (SNR) is one of the important measures for reducing the noise.A technique that uses a linear prediction error filter (LPEF) and an adaptive digital filter (ADF) to achieve noise reduction in a speech and image…

Automatic learning algorithms for improving the image quality of diagnostic B-mode ultrasound (US) images have been gaining popularity in the recent past. In this work, a novel convolutional neural network (CNN) is trained using time of…

This paper addresses the problem of speech separation and enhancement from multichannel convolutive and noisy mixtures, \emph{assuming known mixing filters}. We propose to perform the speech separation and enhancement task in the short-time…

We develop a new approach to robust adaptive beamforming in the presence of signal steering vector errors. Since the signal steering vector is known imprecisely, its presumed (prior) value is used to find a more accurate estimate of the…

Direct-path relative transfer function (DP-RTF) refers to the ratio between the direct-path acoustic transfer functions of two microphone channels. Though DP-RTF fully encodes the sound spatial cues and serves as a reliable localization…

In this paper we address the problem of enhancing speech signals in noisy mixtures using a source separation approach. We explore the use of neural networks as an alternative to a popular speech variance model based on supervised…

Conventional acoustic beamformers typically assume short-time stationarity and process frequency bins independently, ignoring inter-frequency correlations. This is suboptimal for almost-periodic noise sources such as engines, fans, and…

Despite the maturity of modern speaker verification technology, its performance still significantly degrades when facing non-neutrally-phonated (e.g., shouted and whispered) speech. To address this issue, in this paper, we propose a new…

This paper presents a simulation-based approach to own voice detection (OVD) in hearing aids using a single microphone. While OVD can significantly improve user comfort and speech intelligibility, existing solutions often rely on multiple…

In this paper we propose a robust loudspeaker beamforming algorithm which is used to enhance the performance of voice driven applications in scenarios where the loudspeakers introduce the majority of the noise, e.g. when music is playing…

Cooperating radios can extend their communication range by adjusting their signals to ensure coherent combining at a destination radio. This technique is called distributed transmit beamforming. Beamforming (BF) relies on the BF radios…

A typical neural speech enhancement (SE) approach mainly handles speech and noise mixtures, which is not optimal for singing voice enhancement scenarios. Music source separation (MSS) models treat vocals and various accompaniment components…
