Supervised and Semi-supervised Separation of Sounds from Single-Channel Mixtures
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we describe a methodology for model-based single channel separation of sounds. We present a sparse latent variable model that can learn sounds based on their distribution of time/frequency energy. This model can then be used to extract known types of sounds from mixtures in two scenarios. One being the case where all sound types in the mixture are known, and the other being being the case where only the target or the interference models are known. The model we propose has close ties to non-negative decompositions and latent variable models commonly used for semantic analysis.

A general procedure for learning mixtures of independent component analyzers
This paper presents a new procedure for learning mixtures of independent component analyzers. The procedure includes non-parametric estimation of the source densities, supervised-unsupervised learning of the model parameters, incorporation of any independent component analysis (ICA) algorithm into the learning of the ICA mixtures, and estimation of residual dependencies after training for corre...
متن کاملExtracting Prior Knowledge from Data Distribution to Migrate from Blind to Semi-Supervised Clustering
Although many studies have been conducted to improve the clustering efficiency, most of the state-of-art schemes suffer from the lack of robustness and stability. This paper is aimed at proposing an efficient approach to elicit prior knowledge in terms of must-link and cannot-link from the estimated distribution of raw data in order to convert a blind clustering problem into a semi-supervised o...

Recently, there has been much interest in both semi-supervised and manifold learning algorithms, though their applicability has not been explored for all domains. This paper has two goals: (i) to demonstrate semi-supervised approaches based solely on clustering are insufficient for phoneme classification and (ii) to present a new manifold-based semi-supervised algorithm to remedy this shortcomi...

This study explores a semi-supervised classification approach using random forest as a base classifier to classify the low-back disorders (LBDs) risk associated with the industrial jobs. Semi-supervised classification approach uses unlabeled data together with the small number of labelled data to create a better classifier. The results obtained by the proposed approach are compared with those o...
متن کاملClassification vs. Regression in Supervised Learning for Single Channel Speaker Count Estimation
The task of estimating the maximum number of concurrent speakers from single channel mixtures is important for various audio-based applications, such as blind source separation, speaker diarisation, audio surveillance or auditory scene classification. Building upon powerful machine learning methodology, we develop a Deep Neural Network (DNN) that estimates a speaker count. While DNNs efficientl...
