How do you solve a cocktail party problem?
The cocktail party problem is partially solved with perceptual mechanisms that allow the auditory system to estimate individual sound sources from mixtures. 'Bottom-up' grouping cues derived from statistical regularities of sounds help tell us what goes with what (Figure 2, top).
What is cocktail party problem in machine learning?
Consequently, receivers face challenges related to acoustic interference and auditory masking that are not unlike the human “cocktail party problem,” which refers to the problem of perceiving speech in noisy social settings.
