A Frequency Grouping Approach for Blind Deconvolution of Fairly Motionless Sources
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A frequency grouping approach for multi-channel instantaneous blind source separation (I-BSS) of convolutive mixtures is proposed for a lower net residual inter-symbol interference (ISI) and inter-channel interference (ICI) than the conventional short-time Fourier transform (STFT) approach. Starting in the time domain, STFTs are taken with overlapping windows to convert the convolutive mixing problem into frequency domain instantaneous mixing. Mixture samples at the same frequency but from different STFT windows are grouped together forming unique frequency groups. The individual frequency group vectors are input to the I-BSS algorithm of choice, from which the output samples are dispersed back to their respective STFT windows. After applying the inverse STFT, the resulting time domain signals are used to construct the complete source estimates via the weighted overlap-add method (WOLA). The proposed algorithm is tested for source deconvolution given two mixtures, and simulated along with the STFT approach to illustrate its superiority for fairly motionless sources. Keywords—Blind source separation, short-time Fourier transform, weighted overlap-add method

Blind Deconvolution of Timely-correlated Sources by Homomorphic Filtering in Fourier Space
An approach to multi-channel blind deconvolution is developed, which uses an adaptive filter that performs blind source separation in the Fourier space. The approach keeps (during the learning process) the same permutation and provides appropriate scaling of components for all frequency bins in the frequency space. Experiments verify a proper blind deconvolution of convolution mixtures of sources.

Abstract: Image restoration is a critical step in many vision applications. Due to the poor quality of Passive Millimeter Wave (PMMW) images, especially in marine and underwater environment, developing strong algorithms for the restoration of these images is of primary importance. In addition, little information about image degradation process, which is referred to as Point Spread Function (PSF...
متن کاملA Noise-Robust Method with Smoothed ℓ1/ℓ2 Regularization for Sparse Moving-Source Mapping
The method described here performs blind deconvolution of the beamforming output in the frequency domain. To provide accurate blind deconvolution, sparsity priors are introduced with a smoothed `1/`2 regularization term. As the mean of the noise in the power spectrum domain depends on its variance in the time domain, the proposed method includes a variance estimation step, which allows more rob...
