摘要: One embodiment provides a computer-implemented method that includes acquiring, via at least one microphone, sound pressure data from a loudspeaker in a room. The sound pressure data is input into an artificial intelligence (AI) model. The AI model automatically estimates, without user interaction, at least one of energy average (EA) in a listening area or total sound power (TSP) produced by the loudspeaker. The AI model is trained prior to automatically estimating the at least one of the EA in the listening area or the TSP produced by the loudspeaker.

摘要: An audio system for spatializing virtual sound sources is described. A microphone array of the audio system is configured to monitor sound in a local area. A controller of the audio system identifies sound sources within the local area using the monitored sound from the microphone array and determines their locations. The controller of the audio system generates a target position for a virtual sound source based on one or more constraints. The one or more constraints include that the target position be at least a threshold distance away from each of the determined locations of the identified sound sources. The controller generates one or more sound filters based in part on the target position to spatialize the virtual sound source. A transducer array of the audio system presents spatialized audio including the virtual sound source content based in part on the one or more sound filters.

摘要: Techniques for predicted audio immersion related to audio capture devices within an audio environment are discussed herein. Examples may include receiving audio stream inputs associated with audio capture devices positioned within one or more audio capture areas of an audio environment, where the audio environment comprises the one or more audio capture areas and one or more non-audio capture areas. Additionally, the audio stream inputs are transformed into respective audio feature sets. The respective audio feature sets are then input to a hybrid neural network model configured to generate respective augmented signal path data vectors for the respective audio stream inputs. Respective neural network paths of the hybrid neural network model may process one or more of the respective audio feature sets based on respective digital signal processing augmentation networks integrated within the hybrid neural network model.

摘要: The present technique makes it possible to satisfactorily collect sound coming from a predetermined direction using a non-directional microphone.
An audio signal conversion unit converts an audio signal obtained by collecting sound by the non-directional microphone into a unidirectional audio signal. For example, the audio signal conversion unit is configured with a deep neural network. In this case, for example, the deep neural network is trained to learn to minimize a difference between an acoustic feature amount extracted from an audio signal converted by the deep neural network and an acoustic feature amount extracted from a unidirectional audio signal obtained by collecting sound by a unidirectional microphone.-

摘要: A method and apparatus are provided for generating a directional output signal from sound received by at least two microphones arranged as microphone array. The method includes transforming the sound received by each of said microphones and represented by analog-to-digital converted time-domain signals provided by each of said microphones into corresponding complex-valued frequency-domain microphone signals each having a frequency component value for each of a plurality of frequency components, calculating, for each of the plurality of frequency components, real-valued Wind Reduction Factors as minima of the reciprocal and non-reciprocal frequency components of a plurality of real-valued Deviation Spectra if said minimum is below a preselected deviation threshold and set to one if said minimum is above or equal to said deviation threshold, and for each of the plurality of frequency components, forming a frequency-domain wind-reduced output signal.

摘要: A hearing protection and situational awareness system includes a wearable device, speakers, one or more beamformers, a microphone array, and a computation unit. The system generates a three-dimensional (3D) binaural sound for enhanced situational awareness; provides hearing protection by active noise cancelation; provides hearing enhancement by automatic gain control; and performs background noise reduction and cancelation. The system performs automated sound detection, identification, and localization, with automated voice assistance, and facilitates clear two-way communications. Each beamformer(s) outputs a sound track associated with a sound captured by the microphone array in a direction(s) of an acoustic beam pattern(s). The computation unit combines filtered sound tracks generated using head-related transfer function (HRTF) filters into left and right sound channels to drive the speaker(s) in left and right hearing members of the wearable device, respectively, thereby generating a 3D binaural sound including cues of the sound source directions.
