학위논문(박사) - 한국과학기술원 : 바이오및뇌공학과, 2010.08, [ xi, 101 p. ]The blind source extraction (BSE) is an advantageous process over blind signal separation in many practical applications. As in the case of speech enhancement and biomedical signal processing, extracting a single desired source signal is preferred instead of extracting all the source signals. Extracting a specific desired source from a mixture of many sources is a difficult process. To overcome the problem of permutation within the process blind source extraction, methods which specify the order of extraction are necessary. In this dissertation, the blind source extraction algorithms are studied in order to extract the desired source by combining BSE algorithm with two constraint methods. For real-world speech signal processing, the acoustic sources and reverberant room conditions are considered. In the acoustic room, the closest located source to the microphones is defined as the desired source and the others are considered as interferences. The convolutive BSE algorithm is derived by the maximization of non-Gaussinity which is the approximated negentropy based deflationary method developed by Hyvarinen and Oja. The two constrained BSE are proved by several simulated and real simulations. First, the process of imposing the direction constraint into the BSE algorithm is called direction constrained ICA (dcICA). The direction constraint is derived from the inverse relationship of the mixing and demixing filters. To extract the closest source by dcICA, the direction information of interference is used as the initialization for the demixing filters. From various experiments, the dcICA approach proves to be efficient in extracting the closest source even though the interference has more power than the closest source. Secondly, the distance-dependent characteristic which is defined from the mixing filters is used to derive the learning rule for closeness constrained ICA. After defining the closeness property of the mixing filter, the closeness constraint from the...한국과학기술원 : 바이오및뇌공학과
