MUS423 Research Seminars
The CCRMA Music 423 Research Seminar brings graduate students and supervising faculty together for planning and discussion of original research. Students and faculty meet either in small groups or individually, as appropriate for the research topics and interests of the participants. Research carried out is typically presented at the weekly CCRMA Colloquium (if it is of general interest to the CCRMA community) or at a Special DSP Seminar scheduled for that purpose. In either case, announcements appear on the CCRMA Home Page as Upcoming Events.

Source Separation Tutorial Mini-Series III: Extensions and Interpretations to Non-Negative Matrix Factorization
Date:Tue, 04/16/2013 - 5:30pm - 7:30pmLocation:CCRMA ClassroomEvent Type:DSP SeminarAbstract: Building off the last two lectures in the series, we will continue our discussion on non-negative matrix factorization techniques for source separation. We will talk about common extensions, additional interpretations, methods of evaluation, and if time permits, future directions of research. Following the lecture, we will get a chance to program and improve our basic separator from the second lecture. Please bring your laptops with Matlab and/or Octave installed and be ready to code!

Date:Tue, 04/09/2013 - 5:30pm - 7:30pmLocation:CCRMA ClassroomEvent Type:DSP SeminarAbstract: For the second talk in this series, we will introduce the topic of non-negative matrix factorization for the purpose of single-channel source separation. NMF is one of the current most promising and effective class of approaches found for source separation and is a popular topic in several signal processing conferences and journals. Following the lecture, we will get a chance to program a basic source separator. Please bring your laptops with Matlab and/or Octave installed and be ready to code!

Date:Tue, 04/02/2013 - 5:30pm - 7:30pmLocation:CCRMA ClassroomEvent Type:DSP SeminarAbstract: To start off a series of three tutorial-style dsp seminars on current single-channel source separation methods, the first talk will introduce the topic of classical methods used for speech enhancement. We will cover denoising methods such as spectral subtraction, wiener filters, and probabilistic estimators (if time permits). This will give an overview of the large range of literature on reducing background noise from speech.
