According to one embodiment, an electronic device includes a memory and a hardware processor. The hardware processor is in communication with the memory. The hardware processor is configured to obtain a sound file including sound data and attached data, determine a type of meeting of the sound file classified based on an utterance state of the sound data, and display the sound file based on at least one of the sound data and the attached data such that the type of meeting is visually recognizable.

Electronic device and method

According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a biological sensor, an extraction module, a state detector, and a transmission controller. The biological sensor generates first biological data. The extraction module extracts one or more first features from the first biological data. The state detector detects a communication state between a communication module and a server. The transmission controller transmits at least one of the first biological data and the one or more first features to the server, based on the detected communication state.

Electronic apparatus and communication control method

According to one embodiment, a characteristic correcting device includes: a correction filter configured to correct sound quality characteristics of a plurality of bands in a frequency range of an input signal based on a frequency characteristic which is set in advance to generate an output signal; an input module configured to input a surrounding sound signal of sound around an output device outputting the output signal; and an adjusting module configured to reduce the number of the bands of which the sound quality characteristics are to be corrected of the bands in the frequency range of the input signal in accordance with an increase in amplitude of the surrounding sound signal which is input.

Characteristic correcting device and characteristic correcting method

According to one embodiment, a signal processor includes a band divider, a first correction module, a determiner, an adjuster, and a second correction module. The band divider calculates an amplitude indicating sound pressure from an acoustic signal for each frequency range. The first correction module corrects the amplitude to change the dynamic range of the amplitude to a target range. The determiner determines whether the maximum amplitude of amplitudes corrected by the first correction module is equal to or larger than a threshold. The adjuster adjusts first and second coefficients based on the first condition if the maximum amplitude is equal to or larger than the threshold. The second correction module adds a value obtained by multiplying the acoustic signal by the first coefficient to a value obtained by multiplying the correction amount of the amplitude by the second coefficient, and outputs a resulting value as an output signal.

Signal processor and signal processing method

An audio processing apparatus includes a compositional pattern determining module and an audio processor. The compositional pattern determining module is configured to estimate a compositional pattern of an input video signal. The audio processor is configured to perform audio processing according to the estimation.

Audio processing apparatus and audio processing method

A coefficient calculation unit calculates a coefficient (p) according to input signals (x[n]). A balance setting unit decides, according to this coefficient (p), a coefficient used to control the level of a signal in a digital level correction unit and a coefficient used to adjust the characteristics of a signal in a characteristic correction unit, thus allowing the digital level correction unit and characteristic correction unit to execute adaptive processing.
