A Composite T60 Regression and Classification Approach for Speech Dereverberation
Dereverberation is often performed directly on the reverberant audio signal, without knowledge of the acoustic environment. Reverberation time, T60, however, is an essential acoustic factor that reflects how reverberation may impact a signal. In this work, we propose to perform dereverberation while leveraging key acoustic information from the environment. More specifically, we develop a joint learning approach that uses a composite T60 module and a separate dereverberation module to simultaneously perform reverberation time estimation and dereverberation. The reverberation time module provides key features to the dereverberation module during fine tuning. We evaluate our approach in simulated and real environments, and compare against several approaches. The results show that this composite framework improves performance in environments.
