Abstract: Interference in an audio signal is reduced by estimating a target signal using beam-forming in a direction of the signal source. A set of estimates of interference is determined by using a microphone array filtering matrix to block the target signal in the audio signal. A set of filters is optimized by minimizing an objective function measuring a mismatch between the set of estimates of interference and the estimate of the target signal. The minimizing uses a sparse regularization of coefficients of the set of filters. The set of estimates of interference are filtered using the set of filters after the optimizing. Then, the estimate of interference after the optimizing is subtracted from the target signal.
