Sound separation (SS) and target sound extraction (TSE) are fundamental techniques for addressing complex acoustic scenarios. While existing SS methods struggle with determining the unknown number of sound sources, TSE approaches require…

In this article, we develop an algorithm for probabilistic and constrained projection pursuit. Our algorithm called ADIS (automated decomposition into sources) accepts arbitrary non-linear contrast functions and constraints from the user…

Target speaker extraction (TSE) aims to isolate a specific voice from multiple mixed speakers relying on a registerd sample. Since voiceprint features usually vary greatly, current end-to-end neural networks require large model parameters…

Recently, end-to-end speaker extraction has attracted increasing attention and shown promising results. However, its performance is often inferior to that of a blind source separation (BSS) counterpart with a similar network architecture,…

Blind source separation (BSS) algorithms are unsupervised methods, which are the cornerstone of hyperspectral data analysis by allowing for physically meaningful data decompositions. BSS problems being ill-posed, the resolution requires…

Blind source separation (BSS) methods have been applied to deal with the lack of selectivity of ion-selective electrodes (ISE). In this paper, differently from the standard BSS solutions, which are based on the optimization of a…

This paper introduces the NWPU Team's entry to the ICASSP 2022 AEC Challenge. We take a hybrid approach that cascades a linear AEC with a neural post-filter. The former is used to deal with the linear echo components while the latter…

Recent works on deep non-linear spatially selective filters demonstrate exceptional enhancement performance with computationally lightweight architectures for stationary speakers of known directions. However, to maintain this performance in…

We propose a new algorithm for blind source separation (BSS) using independent vector analysis (IVA). This is an improvement over the popular auxiliary function based IVA (AuxIVA) with iterative projection (IP) or iterative source steering…

This paper proposes an efficient bitwise solution to the single-channel source separation task. Most dictionary-based source separation algorithms rely on iterative update rules during the run time, which becomes computationally costly…

In real-world voice conversion applications, environmental noise in source speech and user demands for expressive output pose critical challenges. Traditional ASR-based methods ensure noise robustness but suppress prosody richness, while…

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…

Signal separation and extraction are important tasks for devices recording audio signals in real environments which, aside from the desired sources, often contain several interfering sources such as background noise or concurrent speakers.…

Flow-matching-based text-to-speech (TTS) models, such as Voicebox, E2 TTS, and F5-TTS, have attracted significant attention in recent years. These models require multiple sampling steps to reconstruct speech from noise, making inference…

Acoustic echo degrades the user experience in voice communication systems thus needs to be suppressed completely. We propose a real-time residual acoustic echo suppression (RAES) method using an efficient convolutional neural network. The…

Target speech extraction (TSE) isolates the speech of a specific speaker from a multi-talker overlapped speech mixture. Most existing TSE models rely on discriminative methods, typically predicting a time-frequency spectrogram mask for the…

Edge-preserving smoothing (EPS) can be formulated as minimizing an objective function that consists of data and prior terms. This global EPS approach shows better smoothing performance than a local one that typically has a form of weighted…
