Summary :

Exploring a parsimonious model that is just enough to represent the temporal dependency of time serial signals such as audio or speech is a practical requirement for many signal processing applications. A well suited method for intuitively and efficiently representing magnitude spectra is to use convolutive non-negative matrix factorization (CNMF) to discover the temporal relationship among nearby frames. However, the model order selection problem in CNMF, i.e., the choice of the number of convolutive bases, has seldom been investigated ever. In this paper, we propose a novel Bayesian framework that can automatically learn the optimal model order through maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation. The proposed method yields a parsimonious and low-rank approximation by removing the redundant bases iteratively. We conducted intuitive experiments to show that the proposed algorithm is very effective in automatically determining the correct model order.
