There is provided an acoustic signal enhancement device that receives, as an input, a recording sound obtained by frequency division and updates parameters, the device including: assuming that a switch weight is a weight indicating a ratio of a classification to which a recording sound at each timing belongs in classifications of spatial states where a recording sound temporally changes, a beamformer unit that performs beamformer processing based on a weighted spatial covariance matrix which is updated and updates an auxiliary estimation value of a target sound; a switch unit that updates the switch weight and power of a target sound based on the updated auxiliary estimation value and outputs an estimation value of the target sound; and a weighted spatial covariance estimation unit that updates the weighted spatial covariance matrix based on the updated switch weight and the power.
