For audio source separation applications, it is common to apply a Wiener-like filtering to a time-frequency (TF) representation of the data, such as the short-time Fourier transform (STFT). This approach, in which the phase of the original mixture is assigned to each component, is limited when sources overlap in the TF domain. In this paper, we propose to improve this technique by accounting for two...
Source separation, which consists in decomposing data into meaningful structured components, is an active research topic in many fields including music signal processing. In this paper, we introduce the Positive α-stable (PαS) distributions to model the latent sources, which are a subclass of the stable distributions family. They notably permit us to model random variables that are both nonnegative...
Phase reconstruction of complex components in the time-frequency domain is a challenging but necessary task for audio source separation. While traditional approaches do not exploit phase constraints that originate from signal modeling, some prior information about the phase can be obtained from sinusoidal modeling. In this paper, we introduce a probabilistic mixture model which allows us to incorporate...
In this paper we present a novel source separation method aiming to overcome the difficulty of modelling non-stationary signals. The method can be applied to mixtures of musical instruments with frequency and/or amplitude modulation, e.g. typically caused by vibrato. It is based on a signal representation that divides the complex spectrogram into a grid of patches of arbitrary size. These complex...
Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a powerful tool for decomposing mixtures of audio signals in the Time-Frequency (TF) domain. In the source separation framework, the phase recovery for each extracted component is necessary for synthesizing time-domain signals. The Complex NMF (CNMF) model aims to jointly estimate the spectrogram and the phase of the sources, but requires to constrain the...
Phase recovery of modified spectrograms is a major issue in audio signal processing applications, such as source separation. This paper introduces a novel technique for estimating the phases of components in complex mixtures within onset frames in the Time-Frequency (TF) domain. We propose to exploit the phase repetitions from one onset frame to another. We introduce a reference phase which characterizes...
This paper introduces a novel technique for reconstructing the phase of modified spectrograms of audio signals. From the analysis of mixtures of sinusoids we obtain relationships between phases of successive time frames in the Time-Frequency (TF) domain. To obtain similar relationships over frequencies, in particular within onset frames, we study an impulse model. Instantaneous frequencies and attack...
Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a powerful tool for decomposing mixtures of audio signals in the Time-Frequency (TF) domain. In applications such as source separation, the phase recovery for each extracted component is a major issue since it often leads to audible artifacts. In this paper, we present a methodology for evaluating various NMF-based source separation techniques involving phase...
