Abstract
According to some embodiments, an ear-worn device, e.g., a hearing aid, is provided that operates to enhance audio signals detected by the ear-worn device. In some embodiments, the ear-worn device includes a microphone, a processing circuit coupled to the microphone, and an output signal generator coupled to the processing circuit. In some embodiments, a method for enhancing audio signals includes: detecting an audio signal with the microphone; as the audio signal is being detected, dividing the audio signal into a plurality of segments; enhancing the detected audio signal with the processing circuit of the hearing aid; and outputting the enhanced audio signal with the output signal generator. In some embodiments, enhancing the detected audio signal includes processing one or more of the segments of the detected audio signal with a neural network engine (NNE) of the processing circuit to obtain an output for enhancing the detected audio signal.
