Amplitude and phase dereverberation of monocomponent signals

While most dereverberation methods focus on how to estimate the amplitude of an anechoic signal, we propose a method which also takes the phase into account. By applying a sinusoidal model to the anechoic signal, we derive a formulation to compute the amplitude and phase of each sinusoid. These parameters are then estimated by our method in the reverberant case. As we jointly estimate the amplitude and phase of the clean signal, we achieve a very strong dereverberation, resulting in a significant improvement of objective dereverberation measures over the state-of-the-art.
