Abstract: Presented herein are techniques for generated an integrated estimate of a target sound (e.g., speech) in sound signals received by at least a local microphone array of a device. In embodiments, the integrated estimate may be generated based on sound signals received by the at least a local microphone array of a device and at least one external microphone.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for adaptively filtering audio signals are disclosed. An example system includes a microphone configured to generate a first audio signal in response to receiving a sound, an output transducer configured to provide an output, and a sound processor configured to: (i) filter a first sample of the audio input signal using an adaptive filter to provide a first filtered audio input signal, with the dynamic range of the adaptive filter being limited by an initial value of at least one parameter filter; (ii) process the first filtered audio signal to provide a output audio signal; and (iii) cause the output transducer to provide an output that is based at least in part on the output audio signal. Adaptive signal modeling may be used to update the adaptive filter, with model and the initial value of at least one parameter filter being based on environmental classifier.
