Audio Source Separation in Reverberant Environments using $\beta$-divergence based Nonnegative Factorization

arXiv:2604.12480v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In Gaussian model-based multichannel audio source separation, the likelihood of observed mixtures of source signals is parametrized by source spectral variances and by associated spatial covariance matrices. These parameters are estimated by maximizing the likelihood through an Expectation-Maximization algorithm and used to separate the signals by means of multichannel Wiener filtering. We propose to estimate these parameters by applying nonnegat
