摘要： Systems and methods are disclosed for customizing, distributing and processing audio signature data. Examples disclosed herein include waking a portable device from an inactive state in response to an activation signal. Disclosed examples also include generating a first signature based on audio from a microphone of the portable device during a period of time specified by the activation signal. Disclosed examples further include comparing the first signature with a second signature obtained from the activation signal to determine a match score, and communicating a match result based on the match score to a server via a network.

摘要： Systems and methods for active noise reduction and occlusion reduction based on seal quality of an in-the-ear (ITE) module inserted into a user's ear canal are provided. An example method includes receiving one or more acoustic signals. Each of the acoustic signals represents at least one captured sound having at least one of a voice component and an unwanted noise. The voice component may include the user's own voice. A quality of a seal of an ear canal is determined based at least partially on the acoustic signals. If the quality of the seal exceeds a predetermined threshold value, an occlusion reduction is performed on the acoustic signals to improve the voice component. If the quality of the seal is below a predetermined threshold value, active noise reduction is performed on the acoustic signals to reduce the unwanted noise.

摘要： The invention relates to a codec and a discriminator and methods therein for audio signal discrimination and coding. Embodiments of a method performed by an encoder comprises, for a segment of the audio signal: identifying a set of spectral peaks; determining a mean distance S between peaks in the set; and determining a ratio, PNR, between a peak envelope and a noise floor envelope. The method further comprises selecting a coding mode, out of a plurality of coding modes, based at least on the mean distance S and the ratio PNR; and applying the selected coding mode for coding of the segment of the audio signal.

摘要： A speech/music discrimination method evaluates the standard deviation between envelope peaks, loudness ratio, and smoothed energy difference. The envelope is searched for peaks above a threshold. The standard deviations of the separations between peaks are calculated. Decreased standard deviation is indicative of speech, higher standard deviation is indicative of non-speech. The ratio between minimum and maximum loudness in recent input signal data frames is calculated. If this ratio corresponds to the dynamic range characteristic of speech, it is another indication that the input signal is speech content. Smoothed energies of the frames from the left and right input channels are computed and compared. Similar (e.g., highly correlated) left and right channel smoothed energies is indicative of speech. Dissimilar (e.g., un-correlated content) left and right channel smoothed energies is indicative of non-speech material. The results of the three tests are compared to make a speech/music decision.

摘要： Speech and/or non-speech in an audio input are convolved to localize sounds to different locations for a user. An audio diarization system segments the audio input into speech and non-speech segments. These segments are convolved with one or more head related transfer functions (HRTFs) so the sounds localize to different sound localization points (SLPs) for the user.

摘要： A method includes separating, at a device, an input audio signal into at least a low-band signal and a high-band signal. The low-band signal corresponds to a low-band frequency range and the high-band signal corresponds to a high-band frequency range. The method also includes selecting a non-linear processing function of a plurality of non-linear processing functions. The method further includes generating a first extended signal based on the low-band signal and the non-linear processing function. The method also includes generating at least one adjustment parameter based on the first extended signal, the high-band signal, or both.
