Abstract

See full text

An approach to separating multiple sources exploits the observation that each source is associated with a linear-circular phase characteristic in which the relative phase between pairs of microphones follows a linear (modulo) pattern. In some examples, a modified RANSAC (Random Sample Consensus) approach is used to identify the frequency/phase samples that are attributed to each source. In some examples, either in combination with the modified RANSAC approach or using other approaches, a wrapped variable representation is used to represent a probability density of phase, thereby avoiding a need to “unwrap” phase in applying probabilistic techniques to estimating delay between sources.
