Spatial audio formats like Ambisonics are playback device layout-agnostic and well-suited for applications such as teleconferencing and virtual reality. Conventional Ambisonic encoding methods often rely on spherical microphone arrays for efficient sound field capture, which limits their flexibility…
In this work, we address the challenge of encoding speech captured by a microphone array using deep learning techniques with the aim of preserving and accurately reconstructing crucial spatial cues embedded in multi-channel recordings. We propose a neural spatial audio coding framework that achieves…
While current deep learning (DL)-based beamforming techniques have been proved effective in speech separation, they are often designed to process narrow-band (NB) frequencies independently which results in higher computational costs and inference times, making them unsuitable for real-world use. In…
