Abstract

A system and method for reverberation reduction is disclosed. A first Deep Neural Network (DNN) produces a first estimate of a target direct-path signal from a mixture of acoustic signals that include the target direct-path signal and a reverberation of the target direct-path signal. A filter modeling a room impulse response (RIR) for the first estimate is estimated. The filter when applied to the first estimate of the target direct-path signal generates a result closest to a residual between the mixture of the acoustic signals and the first estimate of the target direct-path signal according to a distance function. The estimated filter is used for modeling the RIR.
