Abstract:
Audio source separation algorithms aim to take a recording of a mixture of sound sources as an input and provide the separated sources as outputs. This is useful for a number of applications such as denoising in the presence of complex noises, processing individual instruments in a mixture, automatic karaoke, extracting dialogue from old films to provide a higher quality soundtrack, and upmixing mono recordings to multi-channel recordings. Algorithmically, this is an ill-posed and challenging problem. However, by making use of easily available high level information, generic training data, and user interaction, we can greatly constrain the problem. In this talk, I will discuss a number of techniques that use such constraints with the goal of performing real-world audio source separation.
Biography:
Gautham J. Mysore is a senior research scientist at Adobe Research and a consulting assistant professor at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA) at Stanford University. His research involves developing new signal processing and machine learning algorithms for a wide variety of real-world audio applications. He received an M.A. and Ph.D. from CCRMA in 2005 and 2010 respectively, and an M.S. from the electrical engineering department at Stanford in 2008. He has previously been a visiting researcher at the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit at the University College London, and has previously spent time at Microsoft Research and the department of Electrical Communication Engineering at the Indian Institute of Science. He is currently a member of the IEEE Technical Committee on Audio and Acoustic Signal Processing and a vice chair of the AES Technical Committee on Semantic Audio Analysis.
