Rank-constrained spatial covariance matrix estimation (RCSCME) is a state-of-the-art blind speech extraction method applied to cases where one directional target speech and diffuse noise are mixed. In this paper, we proposed a new algorithmic extension of RCSCME. RCSCME complements a deficient one r…
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 state-of-the-art BSS method that enables us to take interfrequency correlations into account, but the generative model is…
In this paper, we address a convolutive blind source separation (BSS) problem and propose a new extended framework of FastMNMF by introducing prior information for joint diagonalization of the spatial covariance matrix model. Recently, FastMNMF has been proposed as a fast version of multichannel non…
Audio source separation is an important problem for many audio applications. Independent low-rank matrix analysis (ILRMA) is a recently proposed algorithm that employs the statistical independence between sources and the low-rankness of the time-frequency structure in each source. As reported in thi…
We propose a sound field decomposition method that takes into consideration spatio-temporal sparsity. It has been proved that sparse representation of a sound field is effective in reducing errors originating from spatial aliasing artifacts compared with conventional plane wave decomposition. In mos…
A sparse sound field decomposition method using prior information on source signals in the time-frequency domain is proposed. Sparse sound field decomposition has been proved to be effective for various acoustic signal processing applications. Current methods for sparse decomposition are based only…
