Abstract:
A signal processing apparatus includes a source separation module for producing respective separation signals corresponding to a plurality of sound sources by applying an ICA (Independent Component Analysis) to observation signals produced based on mixture signals from the sound sources, which are taken by source separation microphones, to thereby execute a separation process of the mixture signals, and a signal projection-back module for receiving observation signals of projection-back target microphones and the separation signals produced by the source separation module, and for producing projection-back signals as respective separation signals corresponding to the sound sources, which are taken by the projection-back target microphones. The signal projection-back module produces the projection-back signals by receiving the observation signals of the projection-back target microphones which differ from the source separation microphones.
