Overdetermined Independent Vector Analysis [PDF]
ICASSP 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech and Signal Processing (ICASSP), 2020 We address the convolutive blind source separation problem for the (over-)determined case where (i) the number of nonstationary target-sources $K$ is less than that of microphones $M$, and (ii) there are up to $M - K$ stationary Gaussian noises that need not to be extracted. Independent vector analysis (IVA) can solve the problem by separating into $M$

Organon F, 2019 First I present a puzzle involving two opaque objects and a shadow cast on the ground. After I offer a solution to this puzzle by identifying which of the objects is causally responsible for the shadow, I argue that this case poses a counterexample to ...
