Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of frequency domain blind source separation and audio signal processing, and particularly relates to a low-delay audio signal overdetermined blind source separation method, which comprises the following steps that: each microphone array element in a microphone array picks up sound signals of N sound sources to be separated in a target environment and converts the sound signals into corresponding digital signals, performing short-time Fourier transform on the time-frequency domain observation signal to obtain a corresponding time-frequency domain observation signal; repeatedly iterating and updating the obtained time-frequency domain observation signals until convergence is achieved, and obtaining the variance and the de-mixing vector of each sound source to be separated; constructing a de-mixing matrix by using the obtained de-mixing vector; performing inversion on the de-mixing matrix to obtain estimation of a mixing matrix; for each to-be-separated sound source, based on the hybrid matrix, constructing a multi-channel Wiener filter and performing filtering to obtain a time-frequency domain to-be-separated signal; and performing short-time inverse Fourier transform to obtain the time domain waveform of the signal to be separated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of frequency domain blind source separation (BSS) and audio signal processing, and in particular, relates to a method and a separation device for overdetermined blind source separation of low-latency audio signals. Background technique [0002] In the scene of multiple speakers speaking at the same time, people can focus on the voice of one interested speaker and automatically ignore the voices of other speakers, which is the famous "cocktail party" problem. This question was first proposed by British cognitive scientist Professor Cherry in the 1950s. However, this question has remained unresolved for a long time. Blind source separation is a new field developed to solve this problem. Blind source separation of audio signals has broad application prospects, including human-computer voice interaction, automatic meeting logs, and music separation. [0003] In the past two decades, frequency-domain blind sou...
