In order that the above objects, features and advantages of the present disclosure may be more clearly understood, a further description of aspects of the present disclosure will be provided below. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present disclosure and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.
In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present disclosure, but the present disclosure may be practiced otherwise than as described herein; it will be apparent that the embodiments in the specification are only some, but not all, embodiments of the disclosure.
It should be noted that, the user information (including but not limited to user equipment information, user personal information, etc.) and the data (including but not limited to data for analysis, stored data, presented data, etc.) related to the present application are information and data authorized by the user or fully authorized by each party, and the collection, use and processing of the related data need to comply with the related laws and regulations and standards of the related country and region, and provide corresponding operation entries for the user to select authorization or rejection.
In addition, the multi-mode information processing method provided by the application can relate to the following terms for explanation, and the detailed contents are as follows:
sound source localization: and determining a coordinate system based on the device-side microphone array, and determining the azimuth angle, the elevation angle and the distance of the sound source signal. It is assumed that a smart device, such as a smart box, comprises a plurality of microphones, such as microphone 1, microphone 2, … microphone N shown in fig. 1, which constitute a microphone array. A three-dimensional coordinate system is established by taking the center of the microphone array as an origin O, x represents the x-axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system, y represents the y-axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system, and z represents the z-axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system. The sound source is, for example, a user, who controls the smart device by means of a speech signal. For example, controlling a smart device to turn on, turn off, play music, broadcast weather, etc. The intelligent device can locate the sound source through a certain algorithm. For example, the distance, azimuth, elevation, etc. of the sound source relative to the smart speaker is determined. The distance, azimuth and elevation are specifically shown in fig. 1. The angle between Ox and OA may be used as the azimuth angle, assuming that the projection point of the sound source on the xOy plane is a. The length of the line between the origin O and the sound source may be taken as the distance. The angle between the line and the OA may be referred to as the elevation angle.
However, since some interference signals such as noise generated from home appliances such as an electric fan, a television set, or talking sounds between users are always generated around the smart device. Thereby causing the intelligent device to be unable to accurately locate the sound source.
In view of this problem, embodiments of the present disclosure provide a sound source localization method, which is described below in connection with specific embodiments.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart of a sound source localization method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method can be executed by a sound source positioning device, the device can be realized in a software and/or hardware mode, the device can be configured in electronic equipment, such as a server or a terminal, wherein the terminal specifically comprises intelligent equipment such as a mobile phone, a computer, a tablet personal computer, an intelligent sound box and the like. The server may specifically be a cloud server, where the sound source localization method may be executed by the cloud server, and a plurality of computing nodes (cloud servers) may be deployed in the cloud server, where each computing node has processing resources such as computation and storage. At the cloud, a service may be provided by multiple computing nodes, although one computing node may provide one or more services. The cloud may provide the service by providing a service interface to the outside, and the user invokes the service interface to use the corresponding service. The service interface includes a software development kit (Software Development Kit, abbreviated as SDK), an application program interface (Application Programming Interface, abbreviated as API), and the like.
In addition, the sound source localization method described in the present embodiment may also be performed by an intelligent device such as an intelligent sound box. Specifically, the sound source localization method described in this embodiment may be applied to an application scenario as shown in fig. 3. As shown in fig. 3, the application scenario includes a smart device 31 and a user 32, wherein the user 32 is a sound source controlling the smart device 31. The following describes the method in detail with reference to fig. 3, and as shown in fig. 2, the method specifically includes the following steps:
s201, acquiring multiple paths of audio signals acquired by the intelligent equipment.
The smart device 31 shown in fig. 3 is provided with a plurality of audio acquisition modules, such as a plurality of microphones, which constitute a microphone array. In this embodiment, if an audio signal collected by one microphone is referred to as a single audio signal, audio signals collected by a plurality of microphones may be referred to as multiple audio signals. For each audio signal, the audio signal may include both the control voice of the user 32 to the smart device 31 and the interference signal in the environment surrounding the smart device 31. The interfering signal may include noise from a household appliance such as an electric fan, a television, etc., and/or the interfering signal may include interfering speech, for example, when the user 32 is talking with other users, the speech of the other users may be considered to be interfering speech. In addition, if the smart device 31 further includes an audio playing module, for example, a speaker, the interference signal may further include an audio signal played by the speaker, that is, an echo.
S202, detecting event occurrence of waking up the intelligent equipment according to the multipath audio signals.
Specifically, the smart device 31 may detect, in real time, whether a wake-up event occurs according to the multiple audio signals collected by the smart device 31, where the wake-up event may specifically be an event of waking up the smart device 31. When the smart device 31 detects the occurrence of a wake-up event, the following steps are performed.
S203, determining a covariance matrix for controlling the sound source signal of the intelligent device according to the covariance matrix of the multipath audio signals and the covariance matrix of the interference signals obtained according to the multipath audio signals.
When the smart device 31 detects the occurrence of a wake-up event, a covariance matrix for controlling the sound source signal of the smart device 31 may be determined according to the covariance matrix of the multi-path audio signal and the covariance matrix of the interference signal. The sound source signal may be a control voice of the user 32 to the smart device 31. Wherein the covariance matrix of the interference signal is obtained according to the multipath audio signals.
S204, determining the corresponding directional responses of the plurality of positioning points according to the covariance matrix of the sound source signal and the guide vectors respectively corresponding to the plurality of positioning points distributed in the preset range of the intelligent equipment, and taking the positioning point with the largest directional response among the plurality of positioning points as the positioning point of the sound source.
Specifically, the smart device 31 may determine a preset range around it, for example, the preset range may be a three-dimensional space region centered on the origin of coordinates O, and the three-dimensional space region may be a spherical region, a square region, or a rectangular parallelepiped region. Further, the smart device 31 selects a plurality of anchor points from the preset range, and calculates guide vectors corresponding to the respective anchor points. According to the guiding vectors respectively corresponding to the positioning points and the covariance matrix of the sound source signals, the pointing response respectively corresponding to the positioning points can be calculated. It will be appreciated that the directional responses for different anchor points may be different, and therefore, of the plurality of anchor points, the directional response for a portion of the anchor points is larger and the directional response for a portion of the anchor points is smaller. The embodiment can select the locating point with the largest pointing response from the plurality of locating points, and takes the locating point with the largest pointing response as the locating point of the sound source.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure, the wake-up event is detected through the multipath audio signals collected by the intelligent equipment, and when the wake-up event occurs, the covariance matrix of the sound source signal for controlling the intelligent equipment is determined according to the covariance matrix of the multipath audio signals and the covariance matrix of the interference signal. Further, according to the covariance matrix of the sound source signal and the guide vectors respectively corresponding to the plurality of positioning points distributed in the preset range of the intelligent equipment, determining the directional responses respectively corresponding to the plurality of positioning points, and taking the positioning point with the largest directional response in the plurality of positioning points as the positioning point of the sound source. Because the occurrence of the wake-up event means that the intelligent device can detect the sound source signal from the multipath audio signals, namely, the interference signal is insufficient to influence the intelligent device to identify and analyze the sound source signal, the sound source is positioned when the occurrence of the wake-up event is detected, and the influence of the interference signal on the sound source positioning can be effectively avoided or reduced. Therefore, even if an interference signal exists around the intelligent device, the sound source can be accurately positioned by the embodiment.
The method described in the above embodiment may also be applied to the application scenario shown in fig. 4, for example, the smart device described above may be a smart speaker as shown in fig. 4. The intelligent sound box comprises a microphone array and a loudspeaker. Specifically, not only the sound source controlling the intelligent sound box, but also the interference signal are included around the intelligent sound box. For example, the interference signals include noise generated by home appliances such as an electric fan and a television, interference voices of other users, audio signals played by speakers, and the like. Thus, each of the multiple audio signals collected by the microphone array includes a sound source signal and an interference signal. The intelligent sound box can perform echo cancellation for each path of audio signals in the multipath audio signals, namely, the echo in each path of audio signals is cancelled, and the data stream after echo cancellation is obtained. The echo is the audio signal played by the speaker. Furthermore, the intelligent sound box can process the data stream after echo cancellation according to a voice awakening algorithm to obtain the existence probability of an awakening keyword, namely the awakening word, and detect whether an awakening event occurs according to the existence probability of the awakening keyword. When the occurrence of the wake-up event is detected, the intelligent sound box can conduct sound source positioning according to the existence probability of the wake-up keyword and the data stream after echo cancellation, and a positioning result is obtained.
Optionally, detecting, according to the multiple audio signals, an event occurrence of waking up the smart device includes: detecting the existence probability of the wake-up keyword according to the multipath audio signals; and if the existence probability meets a preset condition, determining that an event for waking up the intelligent equipment occurs.
For example, the smart speaker shown in fig. 4 may detect multiple audio signals in real time, and detect the existence probability of a wake-up keyword according to the multiple audio signals in real time, where the wake-up keyword is a wake-up word for waking up the smart speaker. When the existence probability of the wake-up keyword satisfies a preset condition, for example, when the existence probability of the wake-up keyword is greater than a preset threshold, determining that a wake-up event occurs.
Optionally, detecting the existence probability of the wake-up keyword according to the multi-path audio signal includes: respectively carrying out echo cancellation on the multiple paths of audio signals to obtain multiple paths of first time-frequency domain signals; and detecting the existence probability of the awakening keywords according to the multipath first time-frequency domain signals.
For example, the smart speaker includes N microphones, i.e., N channels, and a microphone array formed by the N microphones may collect N audio signals. After echo cancellation is performed on each path of audio signal, a path of time-frequency domain signal can be obtained, and the time-frequency domain signal is recorded as a first time-frequency domain signal. Therefore, after echo cancellation is performed on the N paths of audio signals, N paths of first time-frequency domain signals can be obtained. The N first time-frequency domain signals may be echo cancelled data streams as described above. Further, according to the N paths of first time-frequency domain signals, the existence probability of the awakening keywords is detected.
Optionally, echo cancellation is performed on the multiple paths of audio signals to obtain multiple paths of first time-frequency domain signals, including: performing Fourier transform on the multiple paths of audio signals respectively to obtain second time-frequency domain signals corresponding to the multiple paths of audio signals respectively; and carrying out echo cancellation on the second time-frequency domain signals corresponding to the multiple paths of audio signals respectively to obtain multiple paths of first time-frequency domain signals.
For example, each audio signal may be denoted as x n (t), n represents a channel index, and t represents a time index. For x n (t) obtaining a time-frequency domain signal X after Fourier transform (Fourier transform) n (t, f), f represents the frequency domain index. The time-frequency domain signal may be denoted as a second time-frequency domain signal. That is, one audio signal is fourier transformed to obtain a second time-frequency domain signal, and N audio signals are fourier transformed to obtain N second time-frequency domain signals.
Further, echo cancellation is performed for a second time-frequency domain signal corresponding to each path of audio signal. For example, the second time-frequency domain signal corresponding to the audio signal on the nth channel is denoted as X n (t,f)。X n (t, f) after echo cancellation algorithm, the first time-frequency domain signal is recorded as S n (t, f). Therefore, the N paths of second time-frequency domain signals are subjected to an echo cancellation algorithm to obtain N paths of first time-frequency domain signals.
Further, after the N paths of first time-frequency domain signals pass through a voice awakening algorithm, the existence probability p (t) of the awakening keywords is obtained. At some point, if p (t) satisfies a preset condition, for example, p (t) is greater than a preset threshold, determining that a wake-up event occurs.
Optionally, the covariance matrix of the multiple audio signals is determined according to the multiple first time-frequency domain signals.
For example, the smart speaker may determine a covariance matrix of the N audio signals from the N first time-frequency domain signals. The covariance matrix comprises n×n elements, i.e., the covariance matrix comprises N rows and N columns. Assuming that m represents the mth row of N rows and N represents the nth column of N columns, then the element Cor1 on the mth row and nth column in the covariance matrix m,n (t, f) can be expressed as the following formula (1):
wherein S is m (t, f) represents the mth first time-frequency domain of the N first time-frequency domain signalsThe signal is transmitted to the host computer via the communication network,representing an nth first time-frequency domain signal S of the N first time-frequency domain signals n Complex conjugate of (t, f). E represents the desire.
Optionally, the covariance matrix of the interference signal is determined according to a preset probability, and the multiple paths of first time-frequency domain signals, where the preset probability is related to the existence probability.
For example, while the covariance matrix of the N audio signals is calculated, the covariance matrix of the interference signal may also be calculated, where the covariance matrix also includes n×n elements, i.e., the covariance matrix includes N rows and N columns. Assuming that m represents the mth row of N rows and N represents the nth column of N columns, then the element Cor2 on the mth row and nth column in the covariance matrix m,n (t, f) can be expressed as the following formula (2):
wherein S is m (t, f) represents an mth first time-frequency domain signal of the N first time-frequency domain signals,representing an nth first time-frequency domain signal S of the N first time-frequency domain signals n Complex conjugate of (t, f). E represents the desire. q (t) represents a preset probability related to the existence probability p (t) of the wake keyword (key word) as described above.
Optionally, if the existence probability is greater than a preset value, the preset probability is 0; if the existence probability is smaller than or equal to a preset value, the preset probability is 1.
For example, q (t) =0 when p (t) is greater than a preset value (threshold). Q (t) =1 when p (t) is less than or equal to a preset value.
When the wake-up event is detected, the intelligent sound box can perform the function of the covariance matrix of the N paths of audio signals and the covariance of the interference signals And (3) matrix, calculating covariance matrix of the sound source signal. The covariance matrix comprises n×n elements, i.e., the covariance matrix comprises N rows and N columns. Assuming that m represents the mth row of N rows and N represents the nth column of N columns, then the element Cor on the mth row and nth column of the covariance matrix m,n (t, f) can be expressed as the following formula (3):
Cor m,n (t,f)=Cor1 m,n (t,f)-α*Cor2 m,n (t,f) (3)
where α represents a weight factor.
It will be appreciated that the manner of calculating each element in the covariance matrix of the sound source signal is shown in formula (3), so that each element in the covariance matrix of the sound source signal, i.e. n×n elements in the covariance matrix of the sound source signal, can be calculated according to formula (3), and this embodiment marks the covariance matrix of the sound source signal as Cor (t, f).
In this embodiment, a coordinate system similar to that shown in fig. 1 can be established with the center of the microphone array in the smart speaker as the origin of coordinates. In the coordinate system, the smart speaker may determine a preset range around it, for example, the preset range may be a three-dimensional space region centered on the origin of coordinates O, and the three-dimensional space region may be a spherical region, a square region, a rectangular parallelepiped region, or the like. Further, the intelligent sound box selects a plurality of positioning points from the preset range, and calculates the guide vectors corresponding to the positioning points respectively. According to the guiding vectors respectively corresponding to the positioning points and the covariance matrix of the sound source signals, the pointing response respectively corresponding to the positioning points can be calculated. In addition, locating the sound source includes determining a distance, azimuth, elevation, etc. of the sound source relative to the intelligent speaker. Therefore, this embodiment will be schematically described with an azimuth angle as an example.
As shown in fig. 5, a dashed line 51 represents a 360 degree azimuth range centered on the origin of coordinates O. In the present embodiment, some square points can be uniformly selected from the 360-degree azimuth range, for example, P square points are selected, the square point shown by 51 is any one of the P square points, which is only schematically illustrated herein and is not particularly limitedAnd (5) setting. Taking the square point 51 as an example, the angle between Ox and the line between the origin of coordinates O and the square point 51 may be regarded as the azimuth angle corresponding to the square point 51. Similarly, azimuth angles corresponding to other azimuth points can be determined. Further, for the P square points, a vector (vector) corresponding to each square point is calculated, for example, a vector corresponding to the P-th square point in the P square points is denoted as v p (f) A.
