Discriminative models for source separation have recently been shown to produce impressive results. However, when operating on sources outside of the training set, these models can not perform as well and are cumbersome to update. Classical methods like Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) provide modular approaches to source separation that can be easily updated to adapt to new mixture scenarios. In this paper, we generalize NMF to develop end-to-end non-negative auto-encoders and demonstrate how they can be used for source separation. Our experiments indicate that these models deliver comparable separation performance to discriminative approaches, while retaining the modularity of NMF and the modeling flexibility of neural networks.

Models for audio source separation usually operate on the magnitude spectrum, which ignores phase information and makes separation performance dependant on hyper-parameters for the spectral front-end. Therefore, we investigate end-to-end source separ
ation in the time-domain, which allows modelling phase information and avoids fixed spectral transformations. Due to high sampling rates for audio, employing a long temporal input context on the sample level is difficult, but required for high quality separation results because of long-range temporal correlations. In this context, we propose the Wave-U-Net, an adaptation of the U-Net to the one-dimensional time domain, which repeatedly resamples feature maps to compute and combine features at different time scales. We introduce further architectural improvements, including an output layer that enforces source additivity, an upsampling technique and a context-aware prediction framework to reduce output artifacts. Experiments for singing voice separation indicate that our architecture yields a performance comparable to a state-of-the-art spectrogram-based U-Net architecture, given the same data. Finally, we reveal a problem with outliers in the currently used SDR evaluation metrics and suggest reporting rank-based statistics to alleviate this problem.
Deep dilated temporal convolutional networks (TCN) have been proved to be very effective in sequence modeling. In this paper we propose several improvements of TCN for end-to-end approach to monaural speech separation, which consists of 1) multi-scal
e dynamic weighted gated dilated convolutional pyramids network (FurcaPy), 2) gated TCN with intra-parallel convolutional components (FurcaPa), 3) weight-shared multi-scale gated TCN (FurcaSh), 4) dilated TCN with gated difference-convolutional component (FurcaSu), that all these networks take the mixed utterance of two speakers and maps it to two separated utterances, where each utterance contains only one speakers voice. For the objective, we propose to train the network by directly optimizing utterance level signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR) in a permutation invariant training (PIT) style. Our experiments on the the public WSJ0-2mix data corpus results in 18.4dB SDR improvement, which shows our proposed networks can leads to performance improvement on the speaker separation task.
Continuous integrate-and-fire (CIF) based models, which use a soft and monotonic alignment mechanism, have been well applied in non-autoregressive (NAR) speech recognition and achieved competitive performance compared with other NAR methods. However,
such an alignment learning strategy may also result in inaccurate acoustic boundary estimation and deceleration in convergence speed. To eliminate these drawbacks and improve performance further, we incorporate an additional connectionist temporal classification (CTC) based alignment loss and a contextual decoder into the CIF-based NAR model. Specifically, we use the CTC spike information to guide the leaning of acoustic boundary and adopt a new contextual decoder to capture the linguistic dependencies within a sentence in the conventional CIF model. Besides, a recently proposed Conformer architecture is also employed to model both local and global acoustic dependencies. Experiments on the open-source Mandarin corpora AISHELL-1 show that the proposed method achieves a comparable character error rate (CER) of 4.9% with only 1/24 latency compared with a state-of-the-art autoregressive (AR) Conformer model.
Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) whose aim is to suppress the echo originated from acoustic coupling between loudspeakers and microphones, plays a key role in voice interaction. Linear adaptive filter (AF) is always used for handling this problem. Ho
wever, since there would be some severe effects in real scenarios, such nonlinear distortions, background noises, and microphone clipping, it would lead to considerable residual echo, giving poor performance in practice. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end network structure for echo cancellation, which is directly done on time-domain audio waveform. It is transformed to deep representation by temporal convolution, and modelled by Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) for considering temporal property. Since time delay and severe reverberation may exist at the near-end with respect to the far-end, a local attention is employed for alignment. The network is trained using multitask learning by employing an auxiliary classification network for double-talk detection. Experiments show the superiority of our proposed method in terms of the echo return loss enhancement (ERLE) for single-talk periods and the perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ) score for double-talk periods in background noise and nonlinear distortion scenarios.
Deep gated convolutional networks have been proved to be very effective in single channel speech separation. However current state-of-the-art framework often considers training the gated convolutional networks in time-frequency (TF) domain. Such an a
pproach will result in limited perceptual score, such as signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR) upper bound of separated utterances and also fail to exploit an end-to-end framework. In this paper we present an integrated simple and effective end-to-end approach to monaural speech separation, which consists of deep gated convolutional neural networks (GCNN) that takes the mixed utterance of two speakers and maps it to two separated utterances, where each utterance contains only one speakers voice. In addition long short-term memory (LSTM) is employed for long term temporal modeling. For the objective, we propose to train the network by directly optimizing utterance level SDR in a permutation invariant training (PIT) style. Our experiments on the public WSJ0-2mix data corpus demonstrate that this new scheme can produce more discriminative separated utterances and leading to performance improvement on the speaker separation task.
