Usually, these correlations are exploited by some heuristic smoothing techniques in the post-processing of the estimated soft TF masks. We propose a different approach: Based on our previous work with one-dimensional (1D)-hidden Markov models (HMMs) along the time axis we extend the modeling to two-dimensional (2D)-HMMs to exploit both temporal and spectral correlations in the speech signal. Based on the principles of turbo decoding we solved the complex inference of 2D-HMMs by a modified forward-backward algorithm which operates alternatingly along the time and the frequency axis. Extrinsic information is exchanged between these steps such that increasingly better soft time-frequency masks are obtained, leading to improved speech separation performance in highly reverberant recording conditions."}],"main_file_link":[{"url":"https://groups.uni-paderborn.de/nt/pubs/2013/TrHa2013_01.pdf","open_access":"1"}]}
