This paper studies the problem of acoustic source localization in room environments. It presents an improved steered response power (SRP) approach with low-complexity and trade-off prewhitening. This method consists of two steps. In the first one, the linear predictor that is used to model the speec…
This paper proposes a frequency-domain recursive least-squares (RLS) adaptive filtering algorithm for identifying time-varying acoustic systems in noisy environments. The Kronecker product (KP) is employed to decompose the model filter of the acoustic channel impulse response into two sets of short…
To identify acoustic systems (which are low-rank in nature) in non-Gaussian and Gaussian noise, a robust recursive least M-estimate adaptive filtering algorithm is developed in this paper by applying the nearest Kronecker product to decompose the acoustic impulse response. Two M-estimators, i.e., th…
To identify acoustic systems in non-Gaussian and Gaussian noises, a robust frequency-domain recursive least M-estimate (FRLM) adaptive filtering algorithm is proposed. The cost function of the adaptive filter is defined by using a robust time-domain M-estimator, while its update equation is derived…
Time delay estimation (TDE) plays an important role in localizing and tracking radiating acoustic sources. Although many efforts have been devoted to this problem in the literature, the robustness of TDE with respect to noise and reverberation remains a great challenge for practical systems. In this…
Noise and reverberation can significantly affect the performance of time delay estimation (TDE) in room acoustic environments. The multichannel cross-correlation coefficient (MCCC) algorithm, which extends the traditional cross-correlation method from two to multiple channels, can exploit the spatia…
