Especially the derivation of complex-valued functions is a key component of this approach. Therefore the real-valued algorithmic differentiation is extended via the complex-valued chain rule. In addition to the basic mathematic operations the derivative of the eigenvalue problem with complex-valued eigenvectors is one of the key results of this report. The potential of this approach is shown with experimental results on the CHiME-3 challenge database. There, the beamforming task is used as a front-end for an ASR system. With the developed derivatives a joint optimization of a speech enhancement and speech recognition system w.r.t. the recognition optimization criterion is possible."}],"status":"public","type":"report","title":"On the Computation of Complex-valued Gradients with Application to Statistically Optimum Beamforming","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://groups.uni-paderborn.de/nt/pubs/2017/ArXiv_2017_BoeddekerHanebrinkHaeb_Article.pdf","open_access":"1"}],"oa":"1","date_updated":"2022-01-06T06:51:08Z","date_created":"2019-07-12T05:27:15Z","author":[{"full_name":"Boeddeker, Christoph","id":"40767","last_name":"Boeddeker","first_name":"Christoph"},{"last_name":"Hanebrink","full_name":"Hanebrink, Patrick","first_name":"Patrick"},{"id":"11213","full_name":"Drude, Lukas","last_name":"Drude","first_name":"Lukas"},{"full_name":"Heymann, Jahn","id":"9168","last_name":"Heymann","first_name":"Jahn"},{"last_name":"Haeb-Umbach","full_name":"Haeb-Umbach, Reinhold","id":"242","first_name":"Reinhold"}],"year":"2017","citation":{"apa":"Boeddeker, C., Hanebrink, P., Drude, L., Heymann, J., &#38; Haeb-Umbach, R.
