Detection of acoustic impulse events in voice applications using a neural network

摘要

In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, an integrated circuit for implementing at least a portion of an audio device may include an audio output configured to reproduce audio information by generating an audio output signal for communication to at least one transducer of the audio device, a microphone input configured to receive an input signal indicative of ambient sound external to the audio device, and a processor configured to implement an impulsive noise detector. The impulsive noise detector may comprise a plurality of processing blocks for determining a feature vector based on characteristics of the input signal and a neural network for determining based on the feature vector whether the impulsive event comprises a speech event or a noise event.
