Abstract
In this paper we present a method for polyphonic music source separation from their monaural mixture, where the underlying assumption is that the harmonic structure of a musical instrument remains roughly the same even if it is played at various pitches and is recorded in various mixing environments. We incorporate with nonnegativity, shift-invariance, and sparseness to select representative spectral basis vectors that are used to restore music sources from their monaural mixture. Experimental results with monaural instantaneous mixture of voice/cello and monaural convolutive mixture of saxophone/viola, are shown to confirm the validity of our proposed method.
