Acoustic source separation systems
Abstract:
A method for acoustic source separation comprises inputting acoustic data from a plurality of acoustic sensors, combined from a plurality of acoustic sources, converting the acoustic data to time-frequency domain data comprising time-frequency data frames, and constructing a multichannel filter for the time-frequency data frames to separate signals from the acoustic sources. The constructing comprises determining a set of de-mixing matrices (Wf) to apply to each time-frequency data frame to determine a vector of separated outputs (yft) by modifying each of the de-mixing matrices by a respective gradient value (G;G′) for a frequency dependent upon a gradient of a cost function measuring a separation of the sources by the respective de-mixing matrix. The respective gradient values for each frequency are each calculated from a stochastic selection of the time-frequency data frames.
