Abstract
Microphone array post-filters have demonstrated their ability to greatly reduce noise at the output of a beamformer. However, current techniques only consider a single source of interest, most of the time assuming stationary background noise. We propose a microphone array post-filter that enhances the signals produced by the separation of simultaneous sources using common source separation algorithms. Our method is based on a loudness-domain optimal spectral estimator and on the assumption that the noise can be described as the sum of a stationary component and of a transient component that is due to leakage between the channels of the initial source separation algorithm. The system is evaluated in the context of mobile robotics and is shown to produce better results than current post-filtering techniques, greatly reducing interference while causing little distortion to the signal of interest, even at very low SNR.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
