Architectural Modeling of a Multi-Tone/Single-Sideband Serial Link Transceiver for Lossy Wireline Data Links

This paper presents a serial link transceiver (TRX) architecture that enables high-speed data transmission over a lossy backplane channel without the presence of equalization circuits. The proposed architecture employs multi-tone signaling to reduce inter- ...

Relax and Unfold: Microphone Localization with Euclidean Distance Matrices

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic, Juri Ranieri

Recent methods for localization of microphones in a microphone array exploit sound sources at a priori unknown locations. This is convenient for ad-hoc arrays, as it requires little additional infrastructure. We propose a flexible localization algorithm by ...

Binaural hearing aids with wireless microphone systems including speaker localization and spatialization

Hervé Lissek, Patrick Marmaroli, Gilles André Courtois

The digital wireless microphone systems for hearing aids have been developed to provide a clean and intelligible speech signal to hearing-impaired listeners for e.g. school or teleconference applications. In this technology, the voice of the speaker is pic ...

Spatial Sound Localization via Multipath Euclidean Distance Matrix Recovery

Hervé Bourlard, Philip Neil Garner, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Saeid Haghighatshoar

A novel localization approach is proposed in order to find the position of an individual source using recordings of a single microphone in a reverberant enclosure. The multipath propagation is modeled by multiple virtual microphones as images of the actual ...

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 ...

Ad Hoc Microphone Array Calibration: Euclidean Distance Matrix Completion Algorithm and Theoretical Guarantees

Hervé Bourlard, Philip Neil Garner, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Reza Parhizkar

This paper addresses the problem of ad hoc microphone array calibration where only partial information about the distances between the microphones is available. We construct a matrix consisting of the pairwise distances and propose to estimate the missing ...

Euclidean Distance Matrices: Essential Theory, Algorithms and Applications

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic, Juri Ranieri, Reza Parhizkar

Euclidean distance matrices (EDMs) are matrices of the squared distances between points. The definition is deceivingly simple; thanks to their many useful properties, they have found applications in psychometrics, crystallography, machine learning, wireles ...

Novel GCC-PHAT Model in Diffuse Sound Field for Microphone Array Pairwise Distance Based Calibration

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

We propose a novel formulation of the generalized cross correlation with phase transform (GCC-PHAT) for a pair of microphones in diffuse sound field. This formulation elucidates the links between the microphone distances and the GCC-PHAT output. Hence, it ...

Probabilistic acoustic

Miranda Krekovic

During my doctoral project I studied probabilistic models for acoustics and time-of-flight setups. The project consisted of solving the simultaneous localization and mapping problem ─ building a map of acoustic sources from time-of-flight measures obtained ...

Theoretical Analysis of Euclidean Distance Matrix Completion for Ad hoc Microphone Array Calibration

Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

We consider the problem of ad~hoc microphone array calibration where the distance matrix consisted of all microphones pairwise distances have entries missing corresponding to distances greater than

d_{\text{max}}

. Furthermore, the known entries are noisy ...
