Robust 3D Localization and Tracking of Sound Sources Using Beamforming and Particle Filtering
Jean-Marc Valin, François Michaud, Jean Rouat
In this paper we present a new robust sound source localization and tracking method using an array of eight microphones (US patent pending) . The method uses a steered beamformer b…
Enhanced Robot Audition Based on Microphone Array Source Separation with Post-Filter
Jean-Marc Valin, Jean Rouat, François Michaud
We propose a system that gives a mobile robot the ability to separate simultaneous sound sources. A microphone array is used along with a real-time dedicated implementation of Geom…
Localization of Simultaneous Moving Sound Sources for Mobile Robot Using a Frequency-Domain Steered Beamformer Approach
Jean-Marc Valin, François Michaud, Brahim Hadjou +1
Mobile robots in real-life settings would benefit from being able to localize sound sources. Such a capability can nicely complement vision to help localize a person or an interest…
Robust Sound Source Localization Using a Microphone Array on a Mobile Robot
Jean-Marc Valin, François Michaud, Jean Rouat +1
The hearing sense on a mobile robot is important because it is omnidirectional and it does not require direct line-of-sight with the sound source. Such capabilities can nicely comp…
Robust Localization and Tracking of Simultaneous Moving Sound Sources Using Beamforming and Particle Filtering
Jean-Marc Valin, François Michaud, Jean Rouat
Mobile robots in real-life settings would benefit from being able to localize and track sound sources. Such a capability can help localizing a person or an interesting event in the…
Auditory System for a Mobile Robot
Jean-Marc Valin
In this thesis, we propose an artificial auditory system that gives a robot the ability to locate and track sounds, as well as to separate simultaneous sound sources and recognisin…
Robust Recognition of Simultaneous Speech By a Mobile Robot
Jean-Marc Valin, Shun'ichi Yamamoto, Jean Rouat +3
This paper describes a system that gives a mobile robot the ability to perform automatic speech recognition with simultaneous speakers. A microphone array is used along with a real…
