Experimental assessment of active electroacoustic absorbers for broadband room modes damping

Hervé Lissek, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Sami Driss Karkar, Véronique Adam

Active electroacoustic absorbers are membrane absorbers actuated, through a feedback control loop and an electromechanical driver, so as to present optimal sound absorption on a broadband range around the membrane resonance. Taking advantage of the low res ...

Raking echoes in the time domain

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic, Robin Scheibler

The geometry of room acoustics is such that the reverberant signal can be seen as the same waveform emitted from multiple locations. In analogy with the rake receiver from wireless communications, we propose several beamforming strategies that exploit, rat ...

Enabling Speech Applications using Ad Hoc Microphone Arrays

Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

Microphone arrays are central players in hands-free speech interface applications. The main duty of a microphone array is capturing distant-talking speech with high quality. A microphone array can acquire the desired speech signals selectively by leading t ...

Structured Sparsity Models for Reverberant Speech Separation

Hervé Bourlard, Volkan Cevher, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammad Golbabaee

We tackle the multi-party speech recovery problem through modeling the acoustic of the reverberant chambers. Our approach exploits structured sparsity models to perform room modeling and speech recovery. We propose a scheme for characterizing the room acou ...

Interactive Real-Time Simulation and Auralization for Modifiable Rooms

Dirk Schröder

To study the effects of any changes to a room or setting on the room acoustics, a framework was developed that enables immediate acoustic and visual feedback to the user. This is achieved by running interactive room acoustics simulations and auralizations ...

Single-Channel Indoor Microphone Localization

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic, Reza Parhizkar

We propose a novel method for single-channel microphone localization inside a known room. Unlike other approaches, we take advantage of the room reverberation, which enables us to use only a single fixed loudspeaker to localize the microphone. Our method u ...

Development of Bilingual ASR System for MediaParl Corpus

Petr Motlicek, Milos Cernak, David Imseng

The development of an Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) system for the bilingual MediaParl corpus is challenging for several reasons: (1) reverberant recordings, (2) accented speech, and (3) no prior information about the language. In that context, we emp ...

Imagine that you are blindfolded inside an unknown room. You snap your fingers and listen to the room’s response. Can you hear the shape of the room? Some people can do it naturally, but can we design computer algorithms that hear rooms? We show how to com ...

A Multipath Sparse Beamfroming Method

Hervé Bourlard, Volkan Cevher, Afsaneh Asaei

A novel formulation of beamforming is proposed for acquisition of the signals in reverberant acoustic clutter of interferences and noise. We derive the beamforming methods which incorporate the sparsity structure pertained to the acoustic source distributi ...
