AI-powered headphones filter only unwanted noise #ASA186 - EurekAlert
<p>Noise-canceling headphones automatically identify background sounds and cancel them out for much-needed peace and quiet. However, typical noise-canceling fails to distinguish between unwanted background sounds and crucial information, leaving headphone users unaware of their surroundings. To address this, a team at the University of Washington have created a system for targeted speech hearing in noisy environments and developed AI-based headphones that selectively filter out specific sounds while preserving others. Shyam Gollakota will present their work at the 186th ASA Meeting.</p>
