  • Publication number: 20250046304
    Abstract: A system, method and computer readable medium for dynamic noise reduction in a voice call. The system includes an encoder having a short-time Fourier transform module to determine a magnitude spectrum and a phase spectrum of an input audio signal. The input audio signal includes speech and dynamic noise. A separator is coupled to the encoder. The separator comprises a temporal convolution network (TCN) used to develop a separation mask using the magnitude spectrum as input. The TCN is trained using a frequency SNR function used to calculate loss during training. A mixer is coupled to the separator to multiply the separation mask with the magnitude spectrum to separate the speech from the dynamic noise to obtain a denoise magnitude spectrum. The system also includes a decoder coupled to the mixer and the encoder. The decoder includes an inverse short-time Fourier transform module to reconstruct the input audio signal without the dynamic noise using the denoise magnitude spectrum and the phase spectrum.

  • Patent number: 10909972
    Abstract: An example apparatus for detecting intent in voiced audio includes a receiver to receive one or more word sequence hypotheses related to a voiced audio and a dynamic vocabulary. The apparatus also includes a natural language understander (NLU) to detect an intent and recognize a property related to the intent based on the word sequence hypothesis and the dynamic vocabulary. The apparatus further includes a transmitter to transmit the detected intent and recognized associated property to an application.

  • Patent number: 10529331
    Abstract: An example apparatus for suppression of key phrase detection includes an audio receiver to receive generated audio from a loopback endpoint and captured audio from a microphone. The apparatus includes a self-trigger detector to detect a key phrase in the generated audio. The apparatus also includes a detection suppressor to suppress detection of the detected key phrase in the captured audio at a second key detector for a predetermined time in response to detecting the key phrase in the generated audio.
