Abstract
Systems and Methods for assisting the hearing-impaired are described. The methods rely on obtaining audio signals from the ambient environment of a hearing-impaired person. The audio signals are analyzed by a machine learning model that can classify audio signals into audio categories (e.g. Emergency, Animal Sounds) and audio types (e.g. Ambulance Siren, Dog Barking) and notify the user leveraging a mobile or wearable device. The user can configure notification preferences and view historical logs. The machine learning classifier is periodically trained externally based on labelled audio samples. Additional system features include an audio amplification option and a speech to text option for transcribing human speech to text output.
