Binary Sparse Coding of Convolutive Mixtures for Sound Localization and Separation via Spatialization

Volkan Cevher, Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Saeid Haghighatshoar, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

We propose a sparse coding approach to address the problem of source-sensor localization and speech reconstruction. This approach relies on designing a dictionary of spatialized signals by projecting the microphone array recordings into the array manifolds ...

From Acoustic Room Reconstruction to SLAM

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic

Recent works on reconstruction of room geometry from echoes assume that the geometry of the sensor array is known. In this paper, we show that such an assumption is not essential; echoes provide sufficient clues to reconstruct the room’s and the array’s ge ...

Spatial Sound Localization via Multipath Euclidean Distance Matrix Recovery

Philip Neil Garner, Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Saeid Haghighatshoar

A novel localization approach is proposed in order to find the position of an individual source using recordings of a single microphone in a reverberant enclosure. The multipath propagation is modeled by multiple virtual microphones as images of the actual ...

Structured Sparsity Models for Reverberant Speech Separation

Volkan Cevher, Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammad Golbabaee

We tackle the multi-party speech recovery problem through modeling the acoustic of the reverberant chambers. Our approach exploits structured sparsity models to perform room modeling and speech recovery. We propose a scheme for characterizing the room acou ...

Spatial echogram analysis of a small auditorium with observations on the dispersion of early reflections

Hervé Lissek, Xavier Falourd, Lukas Rohr

Classical room acoustics are based on the interpretation of different sound attributes such as reverberation time, clarity and spatial decay. Based on echograms calculated from a microphone array, the dispersion of early reflections is measured and the ref ...

Estimating the Delay and Coloration Effect of the Acoustic Echo Path for Low Complexity Echo Suppression

Christof Faller

Acoustic echoes arise whenever there is acoustic coupling between a loudspeaker and a microphone. A traditional solution for eliminating the undesired echo signal is an acoustic echo canceler (AEC), which identifies the echo path between a loudspeaker and ...
