Nowadays, there is a strong need to deploy the target speaker separation (TSS) model on mobile devices with a limitation of the model size and computational complexity. To better perform TSS for mobile voice communication, we first make a dual-channel dataset based on a specific scenario, LibriPhone. Specifically, to better mimic the real-case scenario, instead of simulating from the single-channel dataset, LibriPhone is made by simultaneously replaying pairs of utterances from LibriSpeech by two professional artificial heads and recording by two built-in microphones of the mobile. Then, we propose a lightweight time-frequency domain separation model, LSTM-Former, which is based on the LSTM framework with source-to-noise ratio (SI-SNR) loss. For the experiments on Libri-Phone, we explore the dual-channel LSTMFormer model and a single-channel version by a random single channel of Libri-Phone. Experimental result shows that the dual-channel LSTM-Former outperforms the single-channel LSTMFormer with relative 25% improvement. This work provides a feasible solution for the TSS task on mobile devices, playing back and recording multiple data sources in real application scenarios for getting dual-channel real data can assist the lightweight model to achieve higher performance.

Reversible data hiding in encrypted domain (RDH-ED) has received tremendous attention from the research community because data can be embedded into cover media without exposing it to the third party data hider and the cover media can be losslessly recovered after the extraction of the embedded data. Although, in recent years, extensive studies have been carried out about images based RDH-ED, little attention is paid to RDH-ED in 3D meshes due to its complex data structure and irregular geometry. In this paper, we propose a separable RDH-ED method for 3D meshes based on integer mapping and Multi-MSB (multiplication most significant bit) prediction. The proposed method divides all the vertices of the mesh into the "embedded" set and "reference" set, and maps decimals of the vertex into integers. Then, we calculate the Multi-MSB prediction errors for the vertices of the "embedded" set and a bit-stream encryption technique will be executed. Finally, additional data is embedded by replacing the Multi-MSB of the encrypted vertex coordinates. According to different permissions, recipient can obtain the original plaintext meshes, additional data or both. Experimental results show that the proposed method has higher embedding capacity and higher quality of the recovered meshes compared to the state-of-art methods.
