A method of audio source segregation includes selecting an audio attribute of an audio signal. The method also includes representing a portion of the audio attribute that is dominated by a single source as a source spiking event. In addition, the method includes representing a remaining portion of the audio signal as an audio signal spiking event. The method further includes determining whether the remaining portion coincides with the single source based on coincidence of the source spiking event and audio signal spiking event.
Please help me write a proper abstract based on the patent claims. CLAIM: 1. A method of audio source segregation, comprising: selecting an audio attribute of an audio signal; representing a portion of the audio attribute dominated by a single source as at least one source spiking event; representing a remaining portion of the audio signal as at least one audio signal spiking event; and determining whether the remaining portion coincides with the single source based at least in part on coincidence of the at least one source spiking event and the at least one audio signal spiking event. 2. The method of claim 1, in which the determining is based at least in part on the at least one source spiking event and the at least one audio signal spiking event occurring within a temporal window. 3. The method of claim 1, in which the audio attribute is pitch. 4. The method of claim 1, in which the audio attribute is spatial location. 5. The method of claim 1, in which the determining is based at least in part on a rate of speaking. 6. The method of claim 1, in which the single source comprises an anchor and the anchor is processed using at least one band pass filter to identify a band pass filter output within a specified range. 7. The method of claim 6, in which the processing is conducted on a periodic basis. 8. An apparatus for audio source segregation, comprising: a memory; and at least one processor coupled to the memory, the at least one processor being configured: to select an audio attribute of an audio signal; to represent a portion of the audio attribute that is dominated by a single source as at least one source spiking event; to represent a remaining portion of the audio signal as at least one audio signal spiking event; and to determine whether the remaining portion coincides with the single source based at least in part on coincidence of the at least one source spiking event and the at least one audio signal spiking event. 9. The apparatus of claim 8, in which the at least one processor is further configured to determine whether the remaining portion coincides with the single source based at least in part on the at least one source spiking event and the at least one audio signal spiking event occurring within a temporal window. 10. The apparatus of claim 8, in which the audio attribute is pitch. 11. The apparatus of claim 8, in which the audio attribute is spatial location. 12. The apparatus of claim 8, in which the at least one processor is further configured to determine whether the remaining portion coincides with the single source based at least in part on a rate of speaking. 13. The apparatus of claim 8, in which the single source comprises an anchor and the at least one processor is further configured to process the anchor using at least one band pass filter to identify a band pass filter output within a specified range. 14. The apparatus of claim 13, in which the at least one processor is further configured to process the anchor on a periodic basis. 15. An apparatus for audio source segregation, comprising: means for selecting an audio attribute of an audio signal; means for representing a portion of the audio attribute that is dominated by a single source as at least one source spiking event; means for representing a remaining portion of the audio signal as at least one audio signal spiking event; and means for determining whether the remaining portion coincides with the single source based at least in part on coincidence of the at least one source spiking event and the at least one audio signal spiking event. 16. The apparatus of claim 15, in which the determining means further determines whether the remaining portion coincides with the single source based at least in part on the at least one source spiking event and the at least one audio signal spiking event occurring within a temporal window. 17. The apparatus of claim 15, in which the audio attribute is pitch. 18. A computer program product for audio source segregation, comprising: a non-transitory computer readable medium having encoded thereon program code, the program code comprising: program code to select an audio attribute of an audio signal; program code to represent a portion of the audio attribute that is dominated by a single source as at least one source spiking event; program code to represent a remaining portion of the audio signal as at least one audio signal spiking event; and program code to determine whether the remaining portion coincides with the single source based at least in part on coincidence of the at least one source spiking event and the at least one audio signal spiking event. 19. The computer program product of claim 18, further comprising program code to determine whether the remaining portion coincides with the single source based at least in part on the at least one source spiking event and the at least one audio signal spiking event occurring within a temporal window. 20. The computer program product of claim 18, in which the audio attribute is pitch.
