Project description

Hearing augmentation is closely related to auditory scene and acoustic environment. This project refers to quantify the background environment, detect abnormal events and identify the nature of room acoustic, and then blend the information for (a) auto-tuning of noise suppression for hearing-assistance devices or augmented hearing devices and (b) enhancement in assisted living scenarios and hearables.
