Abstract
Method includes receiving, at a server device, from a plurality of input devices, audio data. The audio data of each input device corresponds to a time-related portion of the audio data. The method determines a speech energy level for each input device by providing the time-related audio portion as input to a trained model. For each input device, a statistical value associated with the speech energy level is determined. A strongest input device is identified based on the statistical value. The statistical value associated with the speech energy level of each input device other than the strongest input device is compared to the statistical value of the strongest input device. Depending on the comparison, the method determines whether to update the gain value of an input device to an estimated target gain value based on the statistical value of the speech energy level of the respective input device.
