Abstract

This paper presents an unsupervised multi-source localization algorithm using a recently introduced feature called the relative harmonic coefficients. We derive a closed-form expression of the feature and briefly summarize its unique properties. We then exploit this feature to develop a single-source frame/bin detector which simplifies the challenging problem of multiple source localization into a single source localization problem. We show that the underlying method is suitable for localization using overlapped, disjoint as well as simultaneous multi-source recordings. Experimental results in both simulated and real-life reverberant environments confirm improved localization accuracy of the proposed method in comparison with the existing state-of-art approach.
