In the framework of the European HearCom project, promising signal enhancement
algorithms were developed and evaluated for future use in hearing instruments. To assess …

This paper is concerned with the problem of detecting and localizing multiple wideband
acoustic sources by applying the notion of wavefield decomposition using circular …

In this paper, we show that minimization of the statistical dependence using broadband
independent component analysis (ICA) can be successfully exploited for acoustic source …

Users of signal processing systems are never satis? ed with the system they currently use.
They are constantly asking for higher quality, faster perf-mance, more comfort and lower …

An acoustic echo suppression unit according to an embodiment of the present invention
includes and input interface for extracting a downmix signal from an input signal, the input …

According to the physical meaning of the frequency-domain blind source separation (FD-
BSS), each mixing matrix estimated by independent component analysis (ICA) contains …

In this paper, acoustic source localization in an acoustic sensor network (ASN) based on
estimates of the coherent-to-diffuse power ratio (CDR) is investigated. It is shown that the …

This contribution treats blind system identification approaches and how they can be used to
localize multiple sources in environments where multipath propagation cannot be neglected …

The availability of wireless technologies leads from monaural or bilateral hearing aids to
binaural processing strategies. In this paper, we investigate a class of blind source …

In this chapter, we develop an analytical top-down approach to the problem of blind
dereverberation of speech and audio signals based on TRINICON (TRIple-N Independent …
