    Abstract: The present document describes a method (600) for estimating source parameters of audio sources (101) from mix audio signals (102), with. The mix audio signals (102) comprise a plurality of frames. The mix audio signals (102) are representable as a mix audio matrix in a frequency domain and the audio sources (101) are representable as a source matrix in the frequency domain. The method (600) comprises updating (601) an un-mixing matrix (221) which is configured to provide an estimate of the source matrix from the mix audio matrix, based on a mixing matrix (225) which is configured to provide an estimate of the mix audio matrix from the source matrix. Furthermore, the method (600) comprises updating (602) the mixing matrix (225) based on the un-mixing matrix (221) and based on the mix audio signals (102). In addition, the method (600) comprises iterating (603) the updating steps (601, 602) until an overall convergence criteria is met.

    Abstract: Embodiments of source separation for reverberant environment are disclosed. According to a method, first microphone signals for each individual one of at least one source are captured respectively by at least two microphones for a period during which only the individual one produces sounds. Mixing parameters for modeling acoustic paths between the at least one source and the at least two microphones are learned by a processor based on the first microphone signals. Second microphone signals are captured respectively by the at least two microphones for a period during which all of the at least one source produce sounds. The reconstruction model is estimated by the processor based on the mixing parameters and second microphone signals. The processor performs the source separation by applying the reconstruction model.

    Abstract: Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to signal processing. A method for decomposing a plurality of audio signals from at least two different channels is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining a set of components that are weakly correlated, the set of components generated based on the plurality of audio signals. The method comprises extracting a feature from the set of components, and determining a set of gains associated with the set of components at least in part based on the extracted feature, each of the gains indicating a proportion of a diffuse part in the associated component. The method further comprises decomposing the plurality of audio signals by applying the set of gains to the set of components. Corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.

    Abstract: An audio object including audio content and object metadata is received. The object metadata indicates an object spatial position of the audio object to be rendered by audio speakers in a playback environment. Based on the object spatial position and source spatial positions of the audio speakers, initial gain values for the audio speakers are determined. The initial gain values can be used to select a set of audio speakers from among the audio speakers. Based on the object spatial position and a set of source spatial positions at which the set of audio speakers are respectively located in the playback environment, a set of non-negative optimized gain values for the set of audio speakers is determined. The audio object at the object spatial position is rendered with the set of optimized gain values for the set of audio speakers.
