Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for signal enhancement are presented. One example of such an apparatus includes a receiver configured to produce a remote speech signal from information carried by a wireless signal; a signal canceller configured to perform a signal cancellation operation on a local speech signal to generate a room response; and a filter configured to filter the remote speech signal according to the room response to produce a filtered speech signal. In this example, the signal cancellation operation is based on the remote speech signal as a reference signal.

Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein provide for verifying the identity of a prospective social network member using an authentication process in which one or more existing members of the social network who are knowledgeable of the identity of the prospective member communicate with the prospective member in real time. During the real-time communication, biometric information of the prospective member can be associated with a profile for the prospective member. During or after the real-time communication, the existing member(s) can verify the identity of the prospective member. Once the prospective member's identity has been properly verified, the prospective member can be granted access to the social network.
