This paper studies the density priors for independent vector analysis (IVA) with convolutive speech mixture separation as the exemplary application. Most existing source priors for IVA are too simplified to capture the fine structures of…

This paper proposes a method for estimating a convolutional beamformer that can perform denoising and dereverberation simultaneously in an optimal way. The application of dereverberation based on a weighted prediction error (WPE) method…

Extracting a target source from underdetermined mixtures is challenging for beamforming approaches. Recently proposed time-frequency-bin-wise switching (TFS) and linear combination (TFLC) strategies mitigate this by combining multiple…

A source separation method using a full-rank spatial covariance model has been proposed by Duong et al. ["Under-determined Reverberant Audio Source Separation Using a Full-rank Spatial Covariance Model," IEEE Trans. ASLP, vol. 18, no. 7,…

The Vector AutoRegressive Moving Average (VARMA) model is fundamental to the theory of multivariate time series; however, identifiability issues have led practitioners to abandon it in favor of the simpler but more restrictive Vector…

In Gaussian model-based multichannel audio source separation, the likelihood of observed mixtures of source signals is parametrized by source spectral variances and by associated spatial covariance matrices. These parameters are estimated…

Automatic learning algorithms for improving the image quality of diagnostic B-mode ultrasound (US) images have been gaining popularity in the recent past. In this work, a novel convolutional neural network (CNN) is trained using time of…

This paper presents a new variational data assimilation (VDA) approach for the formal treatment of bias in both model outputs and observations. This approach relies on the Wasserstein metric stemming from the theory of optimal mass…

Online blind source separation is essential for both speech communication and human-machine interaction. Among existing approaches, overdetermined independent vector analysis (OverIVA) delivers strong performance by exploiting the…

Subsampling is a widely used and effective approach for addressing the computational challenges posed by massive datasets. Substantial progress has been made in developing non-uniform, probability-based subsampling schemes that prioritize…

Multi-frame algorithms for single-microphone speech enhancement, e.g., the multi-frame minimum variance distortionless response (MFMVDR) filter, are able to exploit speech correlation across adjacent time frames in the short-time Fourier…

We investigate the potential of stochastic neural networks for learning effective waveform-based acoustic models. The waveform-based setting, inherent to fully end-to-end speech recognition systems, is motivated by several comparative…

In this paper, we address the problem of extracting all super-Gaussian source signals from a linear mixture in which (i) the number of super-Gaussian sources $K$ is less than that of sensors $M$, and (ii) there are up to $M - K$ stationary…

Variational dimensionality reduction methods are widely used for their accuracy, generative capabilities, and robustness. We introduce a unifying framework that generalizes both such as traditional and state-of-the-art methods. The…

We present a semi-unified sparse dictionary learning framework that bridges the gap between classical sparse models and modern deep architectures. Specifically, the method integrates strict Top-$K$ LISTA and its convex FISTA-based variant…

In this paper, we propose new operator-splitting algorithms for the total variation regularized infimal convolution (TV-IC) model [4] in order to remove mixed Poisson-Gaussian(MPG) noise. In the existing splitting algorithm for TV-IC, an…

We address the problem of detecting speech directed to a device that does not contain a specific wake-word. Specifically, we focus on audio coming from a touch-based invocation. Mitigating virtual assistants (VAs) activation due to…

We develop two new algorithms, called, FedDR and asyncFedDR, for solving a fundamental nonconvex composite optimization problem in federated learning. Our algorithms rely on a novel combination between a nonconvex Douglas-Rachford splitting…

Six-dimensional movable antenna (6DMA) technology has been proposed to enhance the performance of Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) systems. However, within 6DMA-related research, studies on the ISAC system based on rotatable…
