cocktail party algorithm SVD implementation … in one line of code?

I was trying to figure this out as well, 2 years later. But I got my answers; hopefully it’ll help someone.

You need 2 audio recordings. You can get audio examples from http://research.ics.aalto.fi/ica/cocktail/cocktail_en.cgi.

reference for implementation is http://www.cs.nyu.edu/~roweis/kica.html

ok, here’s code –

[x1, Fs1] = audioread('mix1.wav');
[x2, Fs2] = audioread('mix2.wav');
xx = [x1, x2]';
yy = sqrtm(inv(cov(xx')))*(xx-repmat(mean(xx,2),1,size(xx,2)));
[W,s,v] = svd((repmat(sum(yy.*yy,1),size(yy,1),1).*yy)*yy');

a = W*xx; %W is unmixing matrix
subplot(2,2,1); plot(x1); title('mixed audio - mic 1');
subplot(2,2,2); plot(x2); title('mixed audio - mic 2');
subplot(2,2,3); plot(a(1,:), 'g'); title('unmixed wave 1');
subplot(2,2,4); plot(a(2,:),'r'); title('unmixed wave 2');

audiowrite('unmixed1.wav', a(1,:), Fs1);
audiowrite('unmixed2.wav', a(2,:), Fs1);
