Abstract

This paper introduces new contrast functions for blind separation of sources with different time-frequency signatures. Two contrast functions based on the Kullback-Leibler and Jensen-Rényi divergences in the time-frequency (T-F) plane are introduced. Two iterative algorithms are proposed for the proposed contrasts optimization and source separation. One algorithm consists of spatial whitening and gradient-Jacobi maximization, combining Givens rotations and stochastic gradient. The second algorithm uses a quasi-Newton technique.
