Abstract

The current dominant approach for neural speech enhancement is based on supervised learning by using simulated training data. The trained models, however, often exhibit limited generalizability to real-recorded data. To address this, this paper investigates training enhancement models directly on real target-domain data. We propose to adapt mixture-to-mixture (M2M) training, originally designed for speaker separation, for speech enhancement, by modeling multi-source noise signals as a single, combined source. In addition, we propose a co-learning algorithm that improves M2M with the help of supervised algorithms. When paired close-talk and far-field mixtures are available for training, M2M realizes speech enhancement by training a deep neural network (DNN) to produce speech and noise estimates in a way such that they can be linearly filtered to reconstruct the close-talk and far-field mixtures. This way, the DNN can be trained directly on real mixtures, and can leverage close-talk and
