MESSAGE FOLLOWS:
Dear all,
On Thursday, 19th April at 10:30am, Laurent Simon will present the seminar
'Online source separation: a generalised approach'.
The talk will take place in room 209 in the Electronic Engineering
building, Queen Mary University of London, Mile End Road, London E1 4NS.
Directions on how to access the building can be found at
http://www.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/about/campus-map.php. If you are coming from
outside Queen Mary, please let me know, so I can make sure no-one is stuck
outside the doors. Details of future seminars can be found at
http://www.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/newsevents/researchgroupevents.php?i=12.
All are welcome to attend. For those unable to do so, a video recording of
the seminar will be made available online after a few days.
If you wish to be added to / removed from our mailing list, please send me
an email and I'll be happy to do so.
Thursday's seminar (19th April, 10:30am):
Title:
Online source separation: a generalised approach
Speaker:
Laurent Simon
Abstract:
During this talk, we will discuss the problem of online audio source
separation. Most online audio source separation algorithms use either a
sliding block approach or a stochastic gradient approach, which is faster
but less accurate. We propose a general online audio source separation
framework that can combine both online approaches. This online approach is
based on Ozerov's offline general flexible source separation framework, a
framework that lets the user specify spatial, spectral or temporal
constraints for each source of the mixture, depending on the knowledge
available about sound sources.
Bio:
Laurent graduated with a Master's degree in Acoustics, Signal Processing
and Computer Science applied to Music at IRCAM, Paris, France. He did his
Ph.D. in psychoacoustics at the Institute of Sound Recording, University
of Surrey, where he developed stereophonic microphone array design
techniques based on perceptual cues. In January 2011, he started a
postdoctoral position in audio signal processing at INRIA Rennes, France.
Here, he focuses on online audio source separation.
