Abstract :
This paper presents a blind speech separation algorithm that is capable of extracting a speech signal from background noise or music based on a microphone-array. A variable rearrangement is derived to convert convolution operations into a simple matrix multiplication in dynamically mixing systems. The fast fixed-point algorithm is then extended to separate a speech signal from background noise in a realistic room with acoustic reverberation
