The Kalman filter is a fundamental filtering algorithm that fuses noisy sensory data, a previous state estimate, and a dynamics model to produce a principled estimate of the current state. It assumes, and is optimal for, linear models and…
Reverberation may severely degrade the quality of speech signals recorded using microphones in a room. For compact microphone arrays, the choice of the reference microphone for multi-microphone dereverberation typically does not have a…

In reverberant conditions with a single speaker, each far-field microphone records a reverberant version of the same speaker signal at a different location. In over-determined conditions, where there are multiple microphones but only one…
