US Patent 11756564 Deep neural network based speech enhancement

A computer may segment a noisy audio signal into audio frames and execute a deep neural network (DNN) to estimate an instantaneous function of clean speech spectrum and noisy audio spectrum in the audio frame. This instantaneous function may correspond to a ratio of an a-priori signal to noise ratio (SNR) and an a-posteriori SNR of the audio frame. The computer may add estimated instantaneous function to the original noisy audio frame to output an enhanced speech audio frame.
