Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for determining importance and urgency of a task based on acoustic features of audio input associated with the task. The determining includes classifying the task into one or more classes associated with importance, urgency, and priority of the task. The classification may use a trained machine learning model of acoustic features and embedding for a neural network. The task classifier uses feature acoustics of either or both the foreground and background audio. The feature acoustics include a pitch, a tone, and a volume over a time duration of the audio input. A combination of the acoustic features determines a class associated with the task. The machine learning model includes a regression model of acoustic features over time and a model with embedding for a neural network.
