    Abstract: Various disclosed implementations involve processing and/or playback of a recording of a conference involving a plurality of conference participants. Some implementations disclosed herein involve receiving audio data corresponding to a recording of at least one conference involving a plurality of conference participants. In some examples, only a portion of the received audio data will be selected as playback audio data. The selection process may involve a topic selection process, a talkspurt filtering process and/or an acoustic feature selection process. Some examples involve receiving an indication of a target playback time duration. Selecting the portion of audio data may involve making a time duration of the playback audio data within a threshold time difference of the target playback time duration.

    Abstract: A service request for communication services for communication clients is received. In response, a communication service network is set up to support the communication services. Routing metadata is generated for each of the communication clients. The routing metadata is to be used by each of the communication clients for sharing service quality information with a respective peer communication client over a light-weight peer-to-peer (P2P) network. The routing metadata is downloaded to each of the communication clients. A communication client may exchange service signaling packets or service data packets over the communication service network. When the communication client determines that there is a problematic region in a bitstream received from the communication server, the communication client can request a peer communication client for a service quality information portion related to the problematic region.

    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, logic (e.g., executable instructions encoded in a non-transitory computer-readable medium to carry out a method), and a non-transitory computer-readable medium configured with such instructions. The method is to generate and spatially render spatial comfort noise at a receiving endpoint of a conference system, such that the comfort noise has target spectral characteristics typical of comfort noise, and at least one spatial property that at least substantially matches at least one target spatial property. On version includes receiving one or more or more audio signals from other endpoints, combining the received audio signals with the spatial comfort noise signals, and rendering the combination of the received audio signals and the spatial comfort noise signals to a set of output signals for loudspeakers, such that the spatial comfort noise signals are continually in the output signal sin addition to output from the received audio signals.

    Abstract: An audio processing apparatus and an audio processing method are described. In one embodiment, the audio processing apparatus include an audio masker separator for separating from a first audio signal an audio material comprising a sound other than stationary noise and utterance meaningful in semantics, as an audio masker candidate. The apparatus also includes a first context analyzer for obtaining statistics regarding contextual information of detected audio masker candidates, and a masker library builder for building a masker library or updating an existing masker library by adding, based on the statistics, at least one audio masker candidate as an audio masker into the masker library, wherein audio maskers in the maker library are used to be inserted into a target position in a second audio signal to conceal defects in the second audio signal.

    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and logic to post-process raw gains determined by input processing to generate post-processed gains, comprising using one or both of delta gain smoothing and decision-directed gain smoothing. The delta gain smoothing comprises applying a smoothing filter to the raw gain with a smoothing factor that depends on the gain delta: the absolute value of the difference between the raw gain for the current frame and the post-processed gain for a previous frame. The decision-directed gain smoothing comprises converting the raw gain to a signal-to-noise ratio, applying a smoothing filter with a smoothing factor to the signal-to-noise ratio to calculate a smoothed signal-to-noise ratio, and converting the smoothed signal-to-noise ratio to determine the second smoothed gain, with smoothing factor possibly dependent on the gain delta.

    Abstract: Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to spatial congruency adjustment. A method for adjusting spatial congruency in a video conference is disclosed. The method in unwarping a visual scene captured by a video endpoint device into at least one rectilinear scene, the video endpoint device being configured to capture the visual scene in an omnidirectional manner, detecting spatial congruency between the at least one rectilinear scene and an auditory scene captured by an audio endpoint device that is positioned in relation to the video endpoint device. The spatial congruency being a degree of alignment between the auditory scene and the at least one rectilinear scene and in response to the detected spatial congruency being below the threshold, adjusting the spatial congruency. Corresponding system and computer program products are also disclosed.
