Abstract: Aspects of the invention include a method including collecting, by a processor, physiological data from a user in an environment and a sound waveform from the user's environment. The method detects and labels as a potential annoyance, by the processor, a set of potential annoyance data based on the collected physiological data and the sound waveform. The method decomposes, by the processor, the sound waveform into a first sound waveform segment associated with the set of potential annoyance data and a second sound waveform segment not associated with the set of potential annoyance data. The method predicts, by the processor, that the potential annoyance is an actual annoyance. The method filters and modifies, by the processor, the first sound waveform segment associated with the actual annoyance and provides, by the processor, the second sound waveform segment not associated with the actual annoyance to the user.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for performing video synthesis of audiovisual content. In an example, a computing system may determine first facial parameters of a face of a particular person from a first frame in a video shot, whereby the video shot shows the particular person speaking a message. The system may determine second facial parameters based on an audio file that corresponds to the message being spoken in a different way from the video shot. The system may generate third facial parameters by merging the first and the second facial parameters. The system may identify a region of the face that is associated with a difference between the first and second facial parameters, render the region of the face based on a neural texture of the video shot, and then output a new frame showing the face of the particular person speaking the message in the different way.
