Identifying singers is an important task with many applications. However, the task remains challenging due to many issues. One major issue is related to the confounding factors from the background instrumental music that is mixed with the vocals in music production. A singer identification model may…
Separating two sources from an audio mixture is an important task with many applications. It is a challenging problem since only one signal channel is available for analysis. In this paper, we propose a novel framework for singing voice separation using the generative adversarial network (GAN) with…
A new algorithm is proposed for robust principal component analysis with predefined sparsity patterns. The algorithm is then applied to separate the singing voice from the instrumental accompaniment using vocal activity information. To evaluate its performance, we construct a new publicly available…
