SEAL: Mixture-Closed Additive Reconstruction and Refinement-Aware Expert Routing for Efficient Speech Separation
Compact time-frequency separators that mask the mixture and refine through a shared cell face two limits. First, a bounded multiplicative mask only scales a mixture bin, so where overlapping components cancel, the estimate stays small. Second, a shared cell applies the same weights to every time-frequency token at ever …
