Abstract
Example methods and systems provide machine-learning assisted acoustic echo cancellation (AEC). The AEC can be used, as an example, to improve the audio quality for online audio and video conferences. A system according to this disclosure includes a pre-trained, machine-learning, AI model designed to detect, in real time, a unitary voice signal, or a signal representing the speech of a single speaker as opposed to that of multiple speakers. A digital signal processing (DSP) algorithm can then detect the echo state, for example, whether distortion results primarily from an echo. Based on these characteristics, the system can, alternatively and automatically apply either a default mode of AEC to the audio signal, or apply a more aggressive mode of AEC.
