Single Channel Sound Source Separation Combining Delay Estimation And The Adress Algorithm, Mark Leddy, Dan Barry, David Dorran, Eugene Coyle

Conference papers

A method for single channel source separation is proposed in this paper, which uses estimates fo the delay co-efficient of individual sources within an echoic mixture using autocorrelation, following which a "pseudo-stereo mixture" is generated, to which the ADRess algorithm can be applied. The system is evaluated in a theoretical situation, where the mixture signal to be separated consists of two individual source signals, and a delayed version of each signal. Estimates of the individual delay lengths are made and then used to create a pseudo stereo mix, where one channel consists of the orginal mixture signal, and the second …
