Frequency Domain Blind Source Separation for Many Speech Signals
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a method for solving the permutation problem of frequency domain blind source separation (BSS) when the number of source signals is large, and the potential source locations are omnidirectional. We propose a combination of small and large spacing sensor pairs with various axis directions in order to obtain proper geometric information for solving the permutation problem. Experimental results in a room (reverberation time TR=130 ms) with eight microphones show that the proposed method can separate a mixture of six speech signals that come from various directions, even when two of them come from the same direction.

متن کاملModulation domain blind source separation for noisy speech mixture
In this paper, we propose a noise-robust blind speech separation (BSS) method by using two microphones. We first use modulation domain real and imaginary spectral subtraction (MRISS) to enhance both magnitude and phase spectra of the speech mixture inputs. We then estimate the direction of arrivals (DOAs) of the speech sources and perform time-acoustic-modulation frequency masking to recover th...
متن کاملAn Approach to Solving a Permutation Problem of Frequency Domain Independent Component Analysis for Blind Source Separation of Speech Signals
Independent component analysis (ICA) in the frequency domain is used for solving the problem of blind source separation (BSS). However, this method has some problems. For example, a general ICA algorithm cannot determine the permutation of signals which is important in the frequency domain ICA. In this paper, we propose an approach to the solution for a permutation problem. The idea is to effec...
متن کاملBlind Source Separation of Convolutive Mixtures of Speech in Frequency Domain
This paper overviews a total solution for frequencydomain blind source separation (BSS) of convolutive mixtures of audio signals, especially speech. Frequency-domain BSS performs independent component analysis (ICA) in each frequency bin, and this is more efficient than time-domain BSS. We describe a sophisticated total solution for frequency-domain BSS, including permutation, scaling, circular...
