Abstract

The invention discloses a voice sound source positioning method using a microphone array. The voice sound source positioning method comprises the following steps: (1) generating a training sample to obtain a time-frequency domain signal, and acquiring a power envelope; (2) judging whether each time-frequency point of the time-frequency domain signal is a voice direct sound signal or not; (3) training a neural network of a UNET structure by using the sample generated in the step (1); (4) predicting a time-frequency point corresponding to the voice direct sound of a to-be-detected noisy signal by using a trained neural network of the UNET structure; and (5) when time-frequency point is judged to be the time-frequency point of the voice direct sound, applying a positioning method to obtain apositioning result. According to the voice sound source positioning method disclosed by the invention, the influence of interference and reverberation can be effectively removed in a high reverberation and high interference environment, and a result with high accuracy and robustness is obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a voice sound source positioning method based on a UNET structure and using a microphone array in a high-interference and high-reverberation environment, and belongs to the technical field of voice signal processing. Background technique [0002] The purpose of Speech Source Localization (SSL) is to estimate the angle (Direction-of-Arrival, DOA) at which the speech signal arrives at the microphone array. Sound source localization, or DOA estimation, of speech signals using a microphone array is a very important and hot topic in acoustic signal processing. It plays a very important role in capturing sound in many application scenarios, such as human-computer voice interaction of smart devices, lens tracking and intelligent monitoring. However, the difficulty lies in that the speech signal is a broadband non-stationary random process, and there are also background noise, reverberation and other interference sources. [0003] Cl...
