We describe a joint acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) and blind source extraction (BSE) approach for multi-microphone acoustic frontends. The proposed algorithm blindly estimates AEC and beamforming filters by maximizing the statistical…

Speech dereverberation is an important issue for many real-world speech processing applications. Among the techniques developed, the weighted prediction error (WPE) algorithm has been widely adopted and advanced over the last decade, which…

Multichannel blind source separation (MBSS), which focuses on separating signals of interest from mixed observations, has been extensively studied in acoustic and speech processing. Existing MBSS algorithms, such as independent low-rank…

This paper deals with dynamic Blind Source Extraction (BSE) from where the mixing parameters characterizing the position of a source of interest (SOI) are allowed to vary over time. We present a new source extraction model called CvxCSV…

Developing a single-microphone speech denoising or dereverberation front-end for robust automatic speaker verification (ASV) in noisy far-field speaking scenarios is challenging. To address this problem, we present a novel front-end design…

In this paper, a Blind Source Separation (BSS) algorithm for multichannel audio contents is proposed. Unlike common BSS algorithms targeting stereo audio contents or microphone array signals, our technique is targeted at multichannel audio…

This paper proposes an approach for optimizing a Convolutional BeamFormer (CBF) that can jointly perform denoising (DN), dereverberation (DR), and source separation (SS). First, we develop a blind CBF optimization algorithm that requires no…

A new algorithm for dynamic independent vector extraction is proposed. It is based on the mixing model where mixing parameters related to the source-of-interest (SOI) are time-variant while the separating parameters are time-invariant. A…

We propose a new algorithm for joint dereverberation and blind source separation (DR-BSS). Our work builds upon the IRLMA-T framework that applies a unified filter combining dereverberation and separation. One drawback of this framework is…

In this paper, we address the multichannel blind source extraction (BSE) of a single source in diffuse noise environments. To solve this problem even faster than by fast multichannel nonnegative matrix factorization (FastMNMF) and its…

Unsupervised blind source separation methods do not require a training phase and thus cannot suffer from a train-test mismatch, which is a common concern in neural network based source separation. The unsupervised techniques can be…

Blind source separation (BSS) techniques aims at joint estimation of source signals and a mixing matrix from observations of mixtures. This paper addresses a doubly nonstationary BSS problem, where the mixing matrix is time dependent and…

Independent Vector Analysis (IVA) is a popular extension of Independent Component Analysis (ICA) for joint separation of a set of instantaneous linear mixtures, with a direct application in frequency-domain speaker separation or extraction.…

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…

Audio-visual speech enhancement (AVSE) is a task that uses visual auxiliary information to extract a target speaker's speech from mixed audio. In real-world scenarios, there often exist complex acoustic environments, accompanied by various…

This paper proposes harmonic vector analysis (HVA) based on a general algorithmic framework of audio blind source separation (BSS) that is also presented in this paper. BSS for a convolutive audio mixture is usually performed by…

Reverberations are unavoidable in enclosures, resulting in reduced intelligibility for hearing impaired and non native listeners and even for the normal hearing listeners in noisy circumstances. It also degrades the performance of machine…

Given a time series of multicomponent measurements x(t), the usual objective of nonlinear blind source separation (BSS) is to find a "source" time series s(t), comprised of statistically independent combinations of the measured components.…

Speech dereverberation aims to alleviate the negative impact of late reverberant reflections. The weighted prediction error (WPE) method is a well-established technique known for its superior performance in dereverberation. However, in…
