Abstract: System and techniques for audio enhancement processing for both electronically delivered audio signals and ambient sound. Ambient sound processing includes audio enhancement processing of signals captured by ambient microphones communicatively coupled to an audio enhancement processing apparatus as well as media provided by a storage device. Audio enhancement processing is provided for a user utilizing an electronic device that is directly or indirectly communicatively coupled to accessory microphones.

Abstract: System and techniques for identifying and applying personalized audio processing parameter settings for a listener with hearing loss and/or certain listening preferences. The listener creates and allows for automatic recall of a first profile representing a set of audio enhancement processing parameters associated with the listener as well as create and recall a source-dependent profile representing a further improvement, or deviation, from the first profile associated with a source signal or a category of source signals, such as the voice of a given talker.

Abstract: A novel system and method for identifying and establishing personalized audio parameter settings for a person with hearing loss and/or certain listening preferences, without requiring a traditional audiogram or hearing test as a starting point. Instead, two new elements are combined: (1) A group of original sample profiles, and (2) An original tuning flow methodology and algorithm. The tuning flow methodology and algorithm includes a decision-tree conditional logic and structured series of questions that leverage a) the group of sample profiles, and b) new approaches to user interface interaction.

Abstract: A method and system for transparent and automatic establishment of a personalized communication session across heterogeneous networks utilizes a network node for providing personalization services. Communication sessions initiated on any number of heterogeneous networks are transparently and automatically personalized for subscribers to personalization services offered by the network node by routing media in the communication session through the personalization node.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include methods, systems and computer program products for generating at least one control parameter for controlling a signal processor that processes audio signals. A point set is defined, wherein the point set may assume a plurality of topological configurations. Each topological configuration comprises at least one region, each of the at least one region associated with at least one or more topological attributes. A mapping is defined from each of the plurality of topological configurations to a respective plurality of parameters, wherein the mapping is performed based upon the topological attributes of said topological configuration. A user input is received wherein the user input expresses a transformation of the point set from a first topological configuration a second topological configuration. An updated set of topological attributes is determined based upon the second topological configuration.
