NoisyILRMA: Diffuse-Noise-Aware Independent Low-Rank Matrix Analysis for Fast Blind Source Extraction

Koki Nishida, Norihiro Takamune, Rintaro Ikeshita +3

In this paper, we address the multichannel blind source extraction (BSE) of a single source in diffuse noise environments. To solve this problem even faster than by fast multichann…

Independent Deeply Learned Tensor Analysis for Determined Audio Source Separation

Naoki Narisawa, Rintaro Ikeshita, Norihiro Takamune +4

We address the determined audio source separation problem in the time-frequency domain. In independent deeply learned matrix analysis (IDLMA), it is assumed that the inter-frequenc…

PILOT: Introducing Transformers for Probabilistic Sound Event Localization

Christopher Schymura, Benedikt Bönninghoff, Tsubasa Ochiai +5

Sound event localization aims at estimating the positions of sound sources in the environment with respect to an acoustic receiver (e.g. a microphone array). Recent advances in thi…

Data Fusion for Audiovisual Speaker Localization: Extending Dynamic Stream Weights to the Spatial Domain

Julio Wissing, Benedikt Boenninghoff, Dorothea Kolossa +6

Estimating the positions of multiple speakers can be helpful for tasks like automatic speech recognition or speaker diarization. Both applications benefit from a known speaker posi…

Convolutive Transfer Function Invariant SDR training criteria for Multi-Channel Reverberant Speech Separation

Christoph Boeddeker, Wangyou Zhang, Tomohiro Nakatani +6

Time-domain training criteria have proven to be very effective for the separation of single-channel non-reverberant speech mixtures. Likewise, mask-based beamforming has shown impr…

Convergence-guaranteed Independent Positive Semidefinite Tensor Analysis Based on Student's t Distribution

Tatsuki Kondo, Kanta Fukushige, Norihiro Takamune +4

In this paper, we address a blind source separation (BSS) problem and propose a new extended framework of independent positive semidefinite tensor analysis (IPSDTA). IPSDTA is a st…
