Conventional independent component analysis has had a problem that performance deteriorates when the number of sound sources exceeds the number of microphones. Conventional l1 norm minimization method assumes that noises other than sound sources do not exist, and is problematic in that performance deteriorates in environments in which noises other than voices such as echoes and reverberations exist. The present invention considers the power of a noise component as a cost function in addition to an l1 norm used as a cost function when the l1 norm minimization method separates sounds. In the l1 norm minimization method, a cost function is defined on the assumption that voice has no relation to a time direction. However, in the present invention, a cost function is defined on the assumption that voice has a relation to a time direction, and because of its construction, a solution having a relation to a time direction is easily selected.
