AUDIO DEVICE WITH UNCERTAINTY QUANTIFICATION AND RELATED METHODS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240319955 titled 'AUDIO DEVICE WITH UNCERTAINTY QUANTIFICATION AND RELATED METHODS
The abstract describes an audio device that utilizes memory, an interface, and processors to process audio data and provide audio output. The device also analyzes audio data to determine various characteristics and maps them to a neural network to assess processing quality and uncertainty.
- The audio device includes memory, an interface, and one or more processors.
- The processors obtain and process audio data for audio output.
- The processors analyze the audio data to determine characteristics and map them to a neural network.
- The neural network provides a mapping parameter indicating if the characteristics belong to a training manifold.
- An uncertainty parameter is determined based on the mapping parameter to assess processing quality.
- The device adjusts the processing of audio data based on the uncertainty parameter.
Potential Applications: - Audio processing and enhancement in various devices such as headphones, speakers, and smartphones. - Quality control in audio production and editing software. - Real-time audio analysis for live performances or broadcasts.
Problems Solved: - Improved audio processing accuracy and quality. - Enhanced control over audio output based on uncertainty assessment. - Efficient mapping of audio parameters for better performance.
Benefits: - Enhanced audio output quality. - Real-time adjustments for optimal audio processing. - Improved user experience in audio-related applications.
