Abstract:

With the increased popularity and the need for working remotely, the use of teleconferencing systems has increased significantly. The degradation of call quality due to acoustic echoes is one of the major sources of poor speech quality ratings in voice and video calls. The presentation will discuss how deep learning can be applied to achieve better echo cancellation performance in applications including multi-channel AEC and multi-mic AEC scenarios.
