Abstract
A method for multi-channel voice activity detection includes receiving a sequence of input frames characterizing streaming multi-channel audio captured by an array of microphones. Each channel of the streaming multi-channel audio includes respective audio features captured by a separate dedicated microphone. The method also includes determining, using a location fingerprint model, a location fingerprint indicating a location of a source of the multi-channel audio relative to the user device based on the respective audio features of each channel of the multi-channel audio. The method also includes generating an output from an application-specific classifier. The first score indicates a likelihood that the multi-channel audio corresponds to a particular audio type that the particular application is configured to process. The method also includes determining whether to accept or reject the multi-channel audio for processing by the particular application based on the first score generated as output from the application-specific classifier.
