Signed Convex Combination of Fast Convergence Algorithm to Generalized Sidelobe Canceller Beamformer for Multi-Channel Speech Enhancement
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In speech communication applications such as teleconferences, mobile phones, etc., the real-time noises degrade the desired speech quality and intelligibility. For these applications, in the case of multichannel speech enhancement, the adaptive beamforming algorithms play a major role compared to fixed beamforming algorithms. Among the adaptive beamformers, Generalized Sidelobe Canceller (GSC) beamforming with Least Mean Square (LMS) Algorithm has the least complexity but provides poor noise reduction whereas GSC beamforming with Combined LMS (CLMS) algorithm has better noise reduction performance but with high computational complexity. In order to achieve a tradeoff between noise reduction and computational complexity in real-time noisy conditions, a Signed Convex Combination of Fast Convergence (SCCFC) algorithm based GSC beamforming for multi-channel speech enhancement is proposed. This proposed SCCFC algorithm is implemented using a signed convex combination of two Fast Convergence Normalized Least Mean Square (FCNLMS) adaptive filters with different step-sizes. This improves the overall performance of the GSC beamformer in real-time noisy conditions as well as reduces the computation complexity when compared to the existing GSC algorithms. The performance of the proposed multi-channel speech enhancement system is evaluated using the standard speech processing performance metrics. The simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed GSC-SCCFC beamformer over the traditional methods.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
