Original Abstract Submitted
a system, method and computer product for training a neural network system. the method comprises applying an audio signal to the neural network system, the audio signal including a vocal component and a non-vocal component. the method also comprises comparing an output of the neural network system to a target signal, and adjusting at least one parameter of the neural network system to reduce a result of the comparing, for training the neural network system to estimate one of the vocal component and the non-vocal component. in one example embodiment, the system comprises a u-net architecture. after training, the system can estimate vocal or instrumental components of an audio signal, depending on which type of component the system is trained to estimate.
