Abstract: A system for mitigating over-suppression of speech and other non-noise signals is disclosed. In some embodiments, a system is programmed to train a first machine learning model for speech detection or enhancement using a non-linear, asymmetric loss function that penalizes speech over-suppression more than speech under-suppression. The first machine learning model is configured to receive an audio signal and generate a mask indicating an amount of speech present in the audio signal. The mask can be adjusted to remedy sharp voice decay resulting from speech over-suppression. The system is also programmed to train a second machine learning model for laughter or applause detection. The system is further programmed to improve the quality of a new audio signal by applying an adjusted mask to the new audio signal except for the portions of the audio signal that have been identified as corresponding to laughter or applause.
