DETECTION AND ATTENUATION OF VOCAL ARTIFACTS IN AUDIO - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240379115 titled 'DETECTION AND ATTENUATION OF VOCAL ARTIFACTS IN AUDIO
The abstract describes a method for automatically detecting and reducing vocal artifacts in an audio signal by analyzing amplitude measurements in different frequency bands.
- First and second amplitude measurements are generated for specific frequency bands in the audio signal.
- A vocal artifact indication is determined based on the ratio of the first and second amplitude measurements.
- The vocal artifact indication is used to attenuate either the first or second frequency band, reducing vocal artifacts in the audio signal.
- The resulting attenuated signal has reduced vocal artifacts, improving audio quality.
Potential Applications: - Audio editing software - Live sound processing systems - Speech recognition technology
Problems Solved: - Eliminates unwanted vocal artifacts in audio recordings - Improves overall audio quality and clarity
Benefits: - Enhanced audio listening experience - Increased accuracy in speech recognition systems - Improved quality of audio recordings
Commercial Applications: Title: Automatic Vocal Artifact Detection and Attenuation Technology This technology can be utilized in various industries such as music production, broadcasting, telecommunications, and speech analysis software. It can improve the quality of audio recordings, enhance speech recognition systems, and optimize live sound processing.
Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology compare to manual vocal artifact removal methods?
- This technology automates the process, saving time and ensuring consistency in removing vocal artifacts.
2. Can this technology be integrated into existing audio processing software?
- Yes, this technology can be integrated into various audio editing and processing software to enhance their capabilities.
Original Abstract Submitted
automatic detection and attenuation of vocal artifacts in an audio are described herein. first and second amplitude measurements may be generated for respective first and second frequency bands of an audio signal. a vocal artifact indication may be generated based on a ratio of the first and second amplitude measurements. the vocal artifact indication may be used to attenuate at least one of the first frequency band or the second frequency band. an attenuated signal may be provided in which one or more vocal artifacts have been attenuated.
