Blind Speech Extraction Based on Rank-Constrained Spatial Covariance Matrix Estimation With Multivariate Generalized Gaussian Distribution

In this article, we propose a new blind speech extraction (BSE) method that robustly extracts a directional speech from background diffuse noise by combining independent low-rank matrix analysis (ILRMA) and efficient rank-constrained spatial covariance matrix (SCM) estimation. To achieve more accura...

Shrnutí:In this article, we propose a new blind speech extraction (BSE) method that robustly extracts a directional speech from background diffuse noise by combining independent low-rank matrix analysis (ILRMA) and efficient rank-constrained spatial covariance matrix (SCM) estimation. To achieve more accurate BSE than ILRMA, which assumes each source to be a point source (rank-1 spatial model), the proposed method restores the lost spatial basis for the full-rank SCM of diffuse noise. We adopt the multivariate complex generalized Gaussian distribution (GGD) as the statistical generative model to express various types of observed signal. To estimate the model parameters for an arbitrary shape parameter of the multivariate GGD, we derive a new inequality for rank-constrained SCMs. Also, we propose new acceleration methods to accomplish much faster extraction than conventional blind source separation methods. In BSE experiments using simulated and real recorded data, we confirm that the proposed method achieves more accurate and faster speech extraction than conventional methods.
