  • Audio benchmarking with simulated real time processing of audio
    Patent number: 10346124
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method for benchmarking an audio processing algorithm (“APA”) while the APA is executed in a manner simulating expected real time execution by a deployed system. Other embodiments include a method including steps of determining a synthetic APA which corresponds to a counterpart APA (intended for real use by a first deployed system), and benchmarking the synthetic APA while it is executed in a manner simulating expected real time execution of the synthetic APA by a contemplated deployed system. Other aspects include a system or device configured to implement any embodiment of the inventive method, or including a memory which stores data indicative of at least one synthetic APA determined in accordance with, or a benchmark generated by, an embodiment of the inventive method or steps thereof, and a computer readable medium which stores code for implementing any embodiment of the inventive method or steps thereof.
