Abstract

An information presentation device includes an audio signal input unit configured to input an audio signal, an image signal input unit configured to input an image signal, an image display unit configured to display an image indicated by the image signal, a sound source localization unit configured to estimate direction information for each sound source based on the audio signal, a sound source separation unit configured to separate the audio signal to sound-source-classified audio signals for each sound source, an operation input unit configured to receive an operation input and generates coordinate designation information indicating a part of a region of the image, and a sound source selection unit configured to select a sound-source-classified audio signal of a sound source associated with a coordinate which is included in a region indicated by the coordinate designation information, and which corresponds to the direction information.
