Abstract

A first device includes a memory configured to store instructions and one or more processors configured to receive audio signals from multiple microphones. The one or more processors are configured to process the audio signals to generate direction-of-arrival information corresponding to one or more sources of sound represented in one or more of the audio signals. The one or more processors are also configured to and send, to a second device, data based on the direction-of-arrival information and a class or embedding associated with the direction-of-arrival information.
