Self-Supervised Blind Source Separation via Multi-Encoder Autoencoders

The task of blind source separation (BSS) involves separating sources from a mixture without prior knowledge of the sources or the mixing system. This is a challenging problem that often requires making restrictive assumptions about both the mixing system and the sources. In this paper, we propose a novel method for addressing BSS of non-linear mixtures by leveraging the natural feature subspace specialization ability of multi-encoder autoencoders with fully self-supervised learning without strong priors. During the training phase, our method …
