Inpainting of Long Audio Segments With Similarity Graphs

Nathanaël Perraudin

We present a novel method for the compensation of long duration data loss in audio signals, in particular music. The concealment of such signal defects is based on a graph that encodes signal structure in terms of time-persistent spectral similarity. A sui ...
