Signal processing algorithms for binaural hearing aids. KU Leuven
contain signal processing algorithms for noise reduction, feedback
suppression,... Most hearing aid users have hearing aids at both ears
in a so-called bilateral configuration, which means the hearing aids
work independently.
The independent processing of the bilateral configuration destroys the
so-called binaural cues (the time and level ...

Multi-microphone Speech Enhancement: An Integration of A Priori and Data-dependent Spatial Information KU Leuven
A speech signal captured by multiple microphones is often subject to a reduced intelligibility and quality due to the presence of noise and room acoustic interferences. Multi-microphone speech enhancement systems therefore aim at the suppression or cancellation of such undesired signals without substantial distortion of the speech signal. A fundamental aspect to the design of several multi-microphone speech enhancement systems is that of the ...
Reconfigurable Neural Network architectures, circuits, transistors (recoNNact) KU Leuven
Embedded neural networks become more and more important, as they offer superior task performance compared to many traditional algorithms. However they are much more compute heavy than the traditional algorithms, putting a large burden on the power envelope of the embedded platform. This trend is also observed for next generation hearing aids, requiring advanced low-power embedded audio machine learning processing, including improved denoising ...
