Semantic Hearing: Programming Acoustic Scenes with Binaural Hearables

open access: yesProceedings of the 36th Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology, 2023
Imagine being able to listen to the birds chirping in a park without hearing the chatter from other hikers, or being able to block out traffic noise on a busy street while still being able to hear emergency sirens and car honks. We introduce semantic hearing, a novel capability for hearable devices that enables them to, in real-time, focus on, or ...

Speech-dependent Modeling of Own Voice Transfer Characteristics for In-ear Microphones in Hearables

open access: yes, 2023
Many hearables contain an in-ear microphone, which may be used to capture the own voice of its user in noisy environments. Since the in-ear microphone mostly records body-conducted speech due to ear canal occlusion, it suffers from band-limitation ...
