UPGLADE: Unplugged Plug-and-Play Audio Declipper Based on Consensus Equilibrium of DNN and Sparse Optimization
In this paper, we propose a novel audio declipping method that fuses sparse-optimization-based and deep neural network (DNN)– based methods. The two methods have contrasting characteristics, depending on clipping level. Sparse-optimization-based audio de-clipping can preserve reliable samples, being…
