Joint Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Microphone Array Parameters for a Reverberant Single Source Scenario

Estimation of the acoustic-scene related parameters such as relative transfer functions (RTFs) from source to microphones, source power spectral densities (PSDs) and PSDs of the late reverberation is essential and also challenging. Existing maximum likelihood estimators typically consider only subsets of these parameters and use each time frame...

Adaptive time segmentation for improved signal model parameter estimation for a single-source scenario

Estimating the parameters that describe the acoustic scene is very important for many microphone array applications. For example, consider the power spectral densities (PSDs) or relative acoustic transfer functions (RTFs) that are required when estimating a particular sound source using multi-microphone noise reduction. State-of-the-art...
