Abstract
In this paper, we address a convolutive blind source separation (BSS) problem and propose a new extended framework of FastMNMF by introducing prior information for joint diagonalization of the spatial covariance matrix model. Recently, FastMNMF has been proposed as a fast version of multichannel nonnegative matrix factorization under the assumption that the spatial covariance matrices of multiple sources can be jointly diagonalized. However, its source-separation performance was not improved and the physical meaning of the joint-diagonalization process was unclear. To resolve these problems, we first reveal a close relationship between the joint-diagonalization process and the demixing system used in independent low-rank matrix analysis (ILRMA). Next, motivated by this fact, we propose a new regularized FastMNMF supported by ILRMA and derive convergence-guaranteed parameter update rules. From BSS experiments, we show that the proposed method outperforms the conventional FastMNMF in source-separation accuracy with almost the same computation time.
