Abstract

Aspects of the subject technology relate to providing device-independent audio for electronic devices. In one or more implementations, microphone data captured by multiple microphones at an electronic device may be provided to a device-specific audio generalizer at the electronic device. The device-specific audio generalizer may utilize device specific information to generalize the microphone data to form device-independent audio data. The device-independent audio data may then be provided to a device-independent machine learning model at the electronic device or another electronic device for further processing.
