Interfering sources, background noise and reverberation degrade speech quality and intelligibility in hearing aid applications. In this paper, we present an adaptive algorithm aiming at dereverberation, noise and interferer reduction and…

This paper aims at eliminating the interfering speakers' speech, additive noise, and reverberation from the noisy multi-talker speech mixture that benefits automatic speech recognition (ASR) backend. While the recently proposed Weighted…

This paper introduces a new method for multi-channel time domain speech separation in reverberant environments. A fully-convolutional neural network structure has been used to directly separate speech from multiple microphone recordings,…

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…

In the scenario with reverberation, the experience of human-machine interaction will become worse. In order to solve this problem, many methods for the dereverberation have emerged. At present, how to update the parameters of the Kalman…

For multichannel speech enhancement, this letter derives a robust maximum likelihood distortionless response beamformer by modeling speech sparse priors with a complex generalized Gaussian distribution, where we refer to as the CGGD-MLDR…

Applying a sparse constraint on the beam pattern has been suggested to suppress the sidelobe level of a minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamformer. In this letter, we introduce a weighted sparse constraint in the beamformer…

This paper proposes methods that can optimize a Convolutional BeamFormer (CBF) for jointly performing denoising, dereverberation, and source separation (DN+DR+SS) in a computationally efficient way. Conventionally, cascade configuration…

We investigate the effectiveness of convolutive prediction, a novel formulation of linear prediction for speech dereverberation, for speaker separation in reverberant conditions. The key idea is to first use a deep neural network (DNN) to…

Reverberation can severely degrade the quality of speech signals recorded using microphones in an enclosure. In acoustic sensor networks with spatially distributed microphones, a similar dereverberation performance may be achieved using…

Both reverberation and additive noises degrade the speech quality and intelligibility. Weighted prediction error (WPE) method performs well on the dereverberation but with limitations. First, WPE doesn't consider the influence of the…

We previously proposed an optimal (in the maximum likelihood sense) convolutional beamformer that can perform simultaneous denoising and dereverberation, and showed its superiority over the widely used cascade of a WPE dereverberation…

Speech derverberation using a single microphone is addressed in this paper. Motivated by the recent success of the fully convolutional networks (FCN) in many image processing applications, we investigate their applicability to enhance the…

In large-scale wireless acoustic sensor networks (WASNs), many of the sensors will only have a marginal contribution to a certain estimation task. Involving all sensors increases the energy budget unnecessarily and decreases the lifetime of…

We demonstrate that 1x1-convolutions in 1D time-channel separable convolutions may be replaced by constant, sparse random ternary matrices with weights in $\{-1,0,+1\}$. Such layers do not perform any multiplications and do not require…
