In literature, sound source localization under the far- and near-field scenarios are mostly addressed as independent tasks using different approaches. This causes a tedious task to detect the type of sound-field, whereas in practice there may not be a clear boundary between the far- and near-field s…
The relative harmonic coefficients (RHC), recently introduced as a multi-microphone spatial feature, demonstrates promising performance when applied to direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation. All existing RHC-based DOA estimators suffer from a resolution limitation due to the inherent grid-based sear…
A spherical harmonics domain source feature called relative harmonic coefficients (RHC) has recently been applied to address the source direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation problem. This paper presents a compact evaluation and comparison between two existing RHC based DOA estimators: (i) a method u…
One-Shot architecture search, which aims to explore all possible operations jointly based on a single model, has been an active direction of Neural Architecture Search (NAS). As a well-known one-shot solution, Differentiable Architecture Search (DARTS) performs continuous relaxation on the architect…
Differentiable architecture search (DARTS) has been a promising one-shot architecture search approach for its mathematical formulation and competitive results. However, besides its caused high memory utilization and a large computation requirement, many research works have shown that DARTS also ofte…
This paper presents an unsupervised multi-source localization algorithm using a recently introduced feature called the relative harmonic coefficients. We derive a closed-form expression of the feature and briefly summarize its unique properties. We then exploit this feature to develop a single-sourc…
The accuracy and perception of soundfields produced by loudspeaker arrays are strongly influenced by the inherent characteristics of the commercial loudspeakers. This paper analyzes such characteristics of loudspeakers by deriving equivalent theoretical models, and by studying their impact on soundf…
Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) is an active area on the design of deep neural networks for specific tasks and datasets. Given the complexity of discovering new network designs, methods for speeding up the search procedure are becoming important. This paper presents a so-called transferable Auto…
