The technology which is used for segregating voices signals from exhaust noise signals of a car is very practical one to realize the interfaces between men and machines using voices. The voice signals contaminated by exhaust noise signal of a car was separated by canonical correlation ananysis(CCA) in an environment which does not guarantee the independence between signals and have prior informations. Rearrangement for the input signals is important in CCA. CCA was studied and segragation between source signals were performed by CCA through rearrangements of each of signals. It is possible to apply the technique to various signals since it is also possible to use CCA to the signals which are not independent.

본 연구는 환자의 근육 상태를 표면 근전도(EMG, Electrocardiogram)를 통해 정량적으로 평가한 결과를 기반으로 적응 전기치료를 수행 시, 근전도 정량평가에 영향을 주는 심전도 신호를 독립요소 해석(ICA, Independent Component Analysis)을 이용하여 획득된 신호로부터 분리함으로써, 정확한 근전도 정량평가를 할 수 있도록 하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 실험 방법은 소스(source)를 근전도와 심전도 2개로 가정하고, 4 채널을 통하여 획득된 신호를 10 Hz-500 Hz의 대역통과 필터를 이용하여 필터링한 후, 1000 sample/sec로 샘플링하여 센서로 사용하였으며, JADE(Joint Approximate Diagonalization of Eigen-matrices) 알고리즘을 통하여 근전도 신호와 심전도 신호를 분리하였다. 알고리즘의 permutation ambiguity와 scaling ambiguity 특성 문제를 해결하기 위하여, 분리된 신호의 주파수 분석을 통하여 심전도와 근전도 신호로 구분하였으며, 인식된 근전도 신호의 크기를 센서 신호를 기준으로 복원하였다. 결론적으로 아날로그 및 디지털 필터와 달리 근전도의 신호의 왜곡을 극소화하면서도 심전도 신호를 분리해 냄으로써, 근전도를 통한 근육상태의 효과적인 평가가 가능하게 되었다.

본 논문에서는 스테레오 오디오 신호를 이용하여 음원을 분리하는 ADRess 알고리즘을 기반으로, 추정된 음원 방위각에 대한 신호 강도비를 이용하여 분리음원을 생성하는 새로운 분리음원 합성 기법을 제안한다. 입력된 스테레오 채널 신호 간 강도 차(IID) 특성을 이용하여 신호 분석 프레임별로 개선된 신호 강도비 함수에 따른 frequency-azimuth 평면을 구성하고, 이를 통해 추정된 방위각에 상응하는 신호 강도비로 표현되는 확률밀도함수를 좌/우 신호 중 하나의 주 입력 신호에 취함으로써 분리음원을 합성한다. 제안된 기법의 성능을 검증하기 위하여 SASSEC 에서 제공하는 테스트 음원 및 객관적 평가 지표를 이용하여 측정한 결과, 기존 ADRess 알고리즘에서 제시된 방법에 비해 개선된 품질의 분리음원을 합성하는 것으로 평가되었다.

This paper proposes a frequency domain independent component analysis (ICA) algorithm to separate the mixed speech signals using a multiple microphone array By estimating the delay timings using a input cross-correlation, even in the delayed mixture case, we propose a good initial value setting method which leads to optimal convergence. To reduce the calculation, separation process is performed at frequency domain. The results of simulations confirms the better performances of the proposed algorithm.

A unified method for separating musical sources, singing voice for example, from stereophonic mixtures is provided. We usually have two observed signals in stereophonic music contents, where more than two instruments are played together. If we regard each instrument as source, this problem becomes an underdetermined source separation problem and cannot be solved by conventional methods, which infers the spatial environment of the downmixing process happens. Instead, source-specific information has been exploited to recover a particular instrumental source. This paper provides a unifying structure consists of heterogenious ad-hoc separate algorithms, which are designed for separating vocal sources using stereophonic channel information and dominant pitch information of the sources, respectively. Experiments on real world music contents show that the proposed unification can neutralize the drawbacks of the two ad-hoc separation algorithms and finally enhance the separation results.

The CCA (canonical correlation analysis) is a well known analysis tool that measures the linear relationship between two variable sets and it can be used for blind source separation (BSS). In previous works, a blind source separation scheme based on the CCA and auto regression was proposed. Unfortunately, the proposed scheme requires high signal-to-noise ratio for successful source separation. In this paper, we propose an improved BSS scheme based on the CCA and auto regression by eliminating the main diagonal elements of auto covariance matrix. Compared to the previously proposed BSS scheme, the proposed BSS scheme not only offers better source separation performance but also requires low computational complexity.

In case that multichannel blind deconvolution (MBD) applies to signals of which autocorrelation has a high level, separated signals are temporally whitened by diagonal elements of a separation filter matrix. In order to reduce this distortion, the algorithms, which are based on either constraining diagonal elements of a separation filter matrix or estimating a separation filter matrix by using linear prediction residual signals, are presented. Still, some problems are generated in these methods, when we separate reverberation of signals themselves or interference signals from mixed signals. To solve these problems, this paper proposes the multichannel blind deconvolution method which divides processing procedure into the stage to separate interference signals and the stage to eliminate a reverberation of signals themselves. In simulation results, we confirm that the proposed algorithm can solve the problems.

There is no general method to find out from signals of the channel outputs of ICA(Independent Component Analysis) which is what you want. Assuming speech signals contaminated with the sound from the muffler of a car, this paper presents the method which shows what you want, It is anticipated that speech signals will show larger correlation coefficients for speech signals than others. Batch, maximum and average method were proposed using 'ah', 'oh', 'woo' vowels whose signals were spoken by the same person who spoke the speech signals and using the same vowels whose signals are by another person. With the correlation coefficients which were calculated for each vowel, voting and summation methods were added. This paper shows what the best is among several methods tried.
