Semantic feature extraction based on subspace learning with temporal constraints for acoustic event recognition Digit. Signal Process. (IF 2.871) Pub Date : 2020-12-21 Qiuying Shi; Jiqing Han
In acoustic event recognition (AER), it is important to extract semantic features. As two crucial aspects of semantic features, the essential content and the temporal structure can strongly affect the understanding of humans and even computers. In this paper, we first divide each acoustic event sample into short segments. Then, for jointly considering the above two aspects, two semantic feature extraction

Joint deconvolution and unsupervised source separation for data on the sphere Digit. Signal Process. (IF 2.871) Pub Date : 2020-12-22 R. Carloni Gertosio; J. Bobin
Tackling unsupervised source separation jointly with an additional inverse problem such as deconvolution is central for the analysis of multi-wavelength data. This becomes highly challenging when applied to large data sampled on the sphere such as those provided by wide-field observations in astrophysics, whose analysis requires the design of dedicated robust and yet effective algorithms. We therefore
