A first device includes a memory configured to store instructions and one or more processors configured to receive audio signals from multiple microphones. The one or more processors are configured to process the audio signals to generate direction-of-arrival information corresponding to one or more sources of sound represented in one or more of the audio signals. The one or more processors are also configured to and send, to a second device, data based on the direction-of-arrival information and a class or embedding associated with the direction-of-arrival information.

Processing of audio signals from multiple microphones

A device includes a memory configured to store instructions and one or more processors configured to execute the instructions. The one or more processors are configured to execute the instructions to receive audio data including a first audio frame corresponding to a first output of a first microphone and a second audio frame corresponding to a second output of a second microphone. The one or more processors are also configured to execute the instructions to provide the audio data to a first noise-suppression network and a second noise-suppression network. The first noise-suppression network is configured to generate a first noise-suppressed audio frame and the second noise-suppression network is configured to generate a second noise-suppressed audio frame. The one or more processors are further configured to execute the instructions to provide the noise-suppressed audio frames to an attention-pooling network. The attention-pooling network is configured to generate an output noise-suppressed audio frame.

Noise suppression using tandem networks

A device includes one or more processors configured to obtain audio signals representing sound captured by at least three microphones and determine spatial audio data based on the audio signals. The one or more processors are further configured to determine a metric indicative of wind noise in the audio signals. The metric is based on a comparison of a first value and a second value. The first value corresponds to an aggregate signal based on the spatial audio data, and the second value corresponds to a differential signal based on the spatial audio data.
