HMM-based pseudo-clean speech synthesis for splice algorithm
In this paper, we present a novel approach to relax the constraint of stereo-data which is needed in a series of algorithms for noise-robust speech recognition. As a demonstration...

Multiplicative update rules for nonnegative matrix factorization with co-occurrence constraints
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a widely-used tool for obtaining low-rank approximations of nonnegative data such as digital images, audio signals, textual data, financ...

Performance following: Tracking a performance without a score
We present a technique for following a live performance in the situation where a score is not available. Making use of a local alignment between recent and longer term musical inf...

Reverberated speech signal separation based on regularized subband feedforward ICA and instantaneous direction of arrival
In this paper, independent component analysis (ICA) in a subband domain has been extended into a feed-forward network. The feed-forward network maximizes mutual independence of se...

An L1 criterion for dictionary learning by subspace identification
We propose an ℓ1 criterion for dictionary learning for sparse signal representation. Instead of directly searching for the dictionary vectors, our dictionary learning approach i...

Detecting local semantic concepts in environmental sounds using Markov model based clustering
Detecting the time of occurrence of an acoustic event (for instance, a cheer) embedded in a longer soundtrack is useful and important for applications such as search and retrieval...

Learning sparse systems at sub-Nyquist rates: A frequency-domain approach
We propose a novel algorithm for sparse system identification in the frequency domain. Key to our result is the observation that the Fourier transform of the sparse impulse respo...
