Questions about Noise Removal System

1. How does the system differentiate between noise and the actual audio signal?

The system uses algorithms to analyze the audio signal and identify patterns that indicate noise, allowing it to selectively remove unwanted sounds.

2. Can the system be customized to target specific types of background noise?

Yes, the system can be programmed to target and remove specific types of background noise based on user preferences or environmental factors.


Original Abstract Submitted

A system for removing noise from an audio signal is described. For example, noise caused by content playing in the background during a voice command or phone call may be removed from the audio signal representing the voice command or phone call. By removing noise, the signal to noise ratio of the audio signal may be improved.
