Abstract

This study presents UX-Net, a time-domain audio separation network (TasNet) based on a modified U-Net architecture. The proposed UX-Net works in real-time and handles either single or multi-microphone input. Inspired by the filter-and-process-based human auditory behavior, the proposed system introduces novel mixer and separation modules, which result in cost and memory efficient modeling of speech sources. The mixer module combines encoded input in a latent feature space and outputs a desired number of output streams. Then, in the separation module, a modified U-Net (UX) block is applied. The UX block first filters the encoded input at various resolutions followed by aggregating the filtered information and applying recurrent processing to estimate masks of separated sources. The letter 'X' in UX-Net is a name placeholder for the type of recurrent layer employed in the UX block. Empirical findings on the WSJ0-2mix benchmark dataset show that one of the UX-Net configurations outperforms the state-of-the-art Conv-TasNet system by 0.85 dB SI-SNR while using only 16% of the model parameters, 58% fewer computations, and maintaining low latency.
