Abstract
A speech processing apparatus that collects sound signals. With each of the collected sound signals, the apparatus may estimate a direction of a sound source, and select an extension filter that is applied to each sound signal. The extension filter may correspond to the estimated sound source of each of the sound signals. In addition, each of the sound signals may be corrected using the extension filter, and a reverberation reduction of the corrected sound signals and the collected sound signals may be performed.
