Sound Source Separation Using Phase Difference and Reliable Mask Selection
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present an algorithm called ReliableMask SelectionPhase Difference Channel Weighting (RMS-PDCW) which selects the target source masked by a noise source using the Angle of Arrival (AoA) information calculated using the phase difference information. The RMS-PDCW algorithm selects masks to apply using the information about the localized sound source and the onset detection of speech. We demonstrate that this algorithm shows relatively 5.3 percent improvement over the baseline acoustic model, which was multistyle-trained using 22 million utterances on the simulated test set consisting of real-world and interfering-speaker noise with reverberation time distribution between 0 ms and 900 ms and SNR distribution between 0 dB up to clean.

Localization based stereo speech source separation using probabilistic time-frequency masking and deep neural networks
Time-frequency (T-F) masking is an effective method for stereo speech source separation. However, reliable estimation of the T-F mask from sound mixtures is a challenging task, especially when room reverberations are present in the mixtures. In this paper, we propose a new stereo speech separation system where deep neural networks are used to generate soft T-F mask for separation. More specific...
متن کاملSimultaneous Speech Recognition Based on Automatic Missing Feature Mask Generation by Integrating Sound Source Separation
Our goal is to realize a humanoid robot that has the capabilities of recognizing simultaneous speech. A humanoid robot under real-world environments usually hears a mixture of sounds, and thus three capabilities are essential for robot audition; sound source localization, separation, and recognition of separated sounds. In particular, an interface between sound source separation and speech reco...
متن کاملSound source separation algorithm using phase difference and angle distribution modeling near the target
In this paper we present a novel two-microphone sound source separation algorithm, which selects the signal from the target direction while suppressing signals from other directions. In this algorithm, which is referred to as Power Angle Information Near Target (PAINT), we first calculate phase difference for each time-frequency bin. From the phase difference, the angle of a sound source is est...
متن کاملDoes Phase Matter For Monaural Source Separation?
The "cocktail party" problem of fully separating multiple sources from a single channel audio waveform remains unsolved. Current biological understanding of neural encoding suggests that phase information is preserved and utilized at every stage of the auditory pathway. However, current computational approaches primarily discard phase information in order to mask amplitude spectrograms of sound...
متن کاملMonaural Speech Segregation Based on Pitch
Introduction The goal of the proposed algorithm is to separate speech signals in monaural recordings even in very adverse conditions when significant background noise and additional speakers are present at the same time. Particularly we try to decide for each time frequency region which of the different sound sources dominates and then build for each sound source a binary mask which is one at t...
