A promising approach for multi-microphone speech separation involves two deep neural networks (DNN), where the predicted target speech from the first DNN is used to compute signal statistics for time-invariant minimum variance…

In recent years, rapid progress has been made on the problem of single-channel sound separation using supervised training of deep neural networks. In such supervised approaches, a model is trained to predict the component sources from…

Recent works have shown that Deep Recurrent Neural Networks using the LSTM architecture can achieve strong single-channel speech enhancement by estimating time-frequency masks. However, these models do not naturally generalize to…

Target speech separation refers to extracting a target speaker's voice from an overlapped audio of simultaneous talkers. Previously the use of visual modality for target speech separation has demonstrated great potentials. This work…

Recent progress in speech separation has been largely driven by advances in deep neural networks, yet their high computational and memory requirements hinder deployment on resource-constrained devices. A significant inefficiency in…

The vast majority of speech separation methods assume that the number of speakers is known in advance, hence they are specific to the number of speakers. By contrast, a more realistic and challenging task is to separate a mixture in which…

In this paper we propose a method for separation of moving sound sources. The method is based on first tracking the sources and then estimation of source spectrograms using multichannel non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) and extracting…

The SpeakerBeam-FE (SBF) method is proposed for speaker extraction. It attempts to overcome the problem of unknown number of speakers in an audio recording during source separation. The mask approximation loss of SBF is sub-optimal, which…

Supervised multi-channel audio source separation requires extracting useful spectral, temporal, and spatial features from the mixed signals. The success of many existing systems is therefore largely dependent on the choice of features used…

Recently, many deep learning based beamformers have been proposed for multi-channel speech separation. Nevertheless, most of them rely on extra cues known in advance, such as speaker feature, face image or directional information. In this…

Speech signals are inherently complex as they encompass both global acoustic characteristics and local semantic information. However, in the task of target speech extraction, certain elements of global and local semantic information in the…
