In this paper, we develop bound-preserving modified exponential Runge-Kutta (RK) discontinuous Galerkin (DG) schemes to solve scalar hyperbolic equations with stiff source terms by extending the idea in Zhang and Shu \cite{ZhSh:10max}. Exponential strong stability preserving (SSP) high order time discretizations are constructed and then modified to overcome the stiffness and preserve the bound of the numerical solutions. It is also straightforward to extend the method to two dimensions on rectangular and triangular meshes. Even though we only discuss the bound-preserving limiter for DG schemes, it can also be applied to high order finite volume schemes, such as weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) finite volume schemes as well.

We study a time domain decorrelation method of source signal separation from convolutive sound mixtures based on an infinite impulse response (IIR) model. The IIR model uses fewer parameters to capture the physical mixing process and is useful for finding low dimensional separating solutions. We present inversion formulas to decorrelate the mixture signals and derive filter equations involving second order time lagged statistics of mixtures. We then formulate an l constrained minimization problem and solve it by an iterative method. Numerical experiments on recorded sound mixtures show that our method is capable of sound separation in low dimensional parameter spaces with good perceptual quality and low correlation coefficient comparable to the known infomax method.
