In this paper, statistical-model generalizations of independent low-rank matrix analysis (ILRMA) are proposed for achieving high-quality blind source separation (BSS). BSS is a crucial problem in realizing many audio applications, where the audio sources must be separated using only the observed mixture signal. Many algorithms for solving BSS have been proposed, especially in the history of independent component analysis and nonnegative matrix factorization. In particular, ILRMA can achieve the highest separation performance for music or speech mixtures, where ILRMA assumes both independence between sources and the low-rankness of time-frequency structure in each source. In this paper, we propose two extensions of the source distribution assumed in ILRMA. We introduce a heavy-tailed property by replacing the conventional Gaussian source distribution with a generalized Gaussian or Student’s t distribution. Convergence-guaranteed efficient algorithms are derived for the proposed methods, and the relationship between the generalized Gaussian and Student’s t distributions in the source model estimation is revealed. By experimental evaluation, the validity of the heavy-tailed generalizations of ILRMA is confirmed. |
