A Cascade System for Solving Permutation and Gain Problems in Frequency-Domain BSS

چکیده
This paper presents a novel technique for separating convolutive mixtures of statistically independent non-Gaussian signals. The time-domain convolution is transformed into several instantaneous mixtures in the frequency-domain. The separation of these mixtures is performed in two steps. First, the instantaneous mixture at the frequency of reference is solved using JADE and the other mixtures are then separated using the Mean Square Error (MSE) criterion. We also present a novel method to select the frequency of reference.

In this paper, a new algorithm is introduced for localization of multiple speakers in echoic environments. The origin of localization is based on combination of TDOA estimates of each source obtained by the BSS algorithm in the time domain. A new BSS algorithm is proposed which improves the quality and channel identification compared to a reference technique and also reduces the computational c...
متن کاملSolving the Permutation and Circularity Problems of Frequency-Domain Blind Source Separation
Blind source separation (BSS) for convolutive mixtures can be performed efficiently in the frequency domain, where independent component analysis (ICA) is applied separately in each frequency bin. However, frequencydomain BSS involves two major problems that must be solved. The first is the permutation problem: the permutation ambiguity of ICA should be aligned so that a separated signal in the...
متن کاملAn Approach to Solving a Permutation Problem of Frequency Domain Independent Component Analysis for Blind Source Separation of Speech Signals
Independent component analysis (ICA) in the frequency domain is used for solving the problem of blind source separation (BSS). However, this method has some problems. For example, a general ICA algorithm cannot determine the permutation of signals which is important in the frequency domain ICA. In this paper, we propose an approach to the solution for a permutation problem. The idea is to effec...
متن کاملBlind Separation of Non-stationary Convolutively Mixed Signals in the Time Domain
This paper proposes a new algorithm for solving the Blind Signal Separation (BSS) problem for convolutive mixing completely in the time domain. The closed form expressions used for first and second order optimization techniques derived in [1] are extended to accommodate the more practical convolutive mixing scenario. Traditionally convolutive BSS problems are solved in the frequency domain [2],...

This paper describes the circularity problem of frequencydomain blind source separation (BSS), and presents a new method for solving it. Frequency-domain BSS performs independent component analysis (ICA) in each frequency bin. It is more efficient than time-domain BSS where ICA is applied to convolutive mixtures. However, frequency-domain BSS has two problems. The first is the permutation probl...
