This article describes a computationally-efficient statistical approach to joint (semi-)blind source separation and dereverberation for multichannel noisy reverberant mixture signals. A standard approach to source separation is to formulate a generative model of a multichannel mixture spectrogram that consists of source and spatial models representing the time-frequency power spectral densities (PSDs) and spatial covariance matrices (SCMs) of source images, respectively, and find the maximum-likelihood estimates of these parameters. A state-of-the-art blind source separation method in this thread of research is fast multichannel nonnegative matrix factorization (FastMNMF) based on the low-rank PSDs and jointly-diagonalizable full-rank SCMs. To perform mutually-dependent separation and dereverberation jointly, in this paper we integrate both moving average (MA) and autoregressive (AR) models that …
