Systems and methods for dynamic voice accentuation and reinforcement are presented herein. One embodiment comprises one or more audio input sources; one or more audio output sources; one or more band pass filters; and a processing control unit that includes an audio processing unit, and which executes a method: differentiating between audio input sources as vocal sound audio input sources and ambient noise audio input sources; increasing the gain of the vocal sound audio input sources; inverting a polarity of an ambient noise signal received by each of the ambient noise audio input sources; and adding the inverted polarity to either an output signal of at least one of the one or more audio output sources, or to an input signal of at least one of the vocal sound audio input sources, to reduce ambient noise.

A method is provided that includes obtaining two or more microphone audio signals; analysing the two or more microphone audio signals for a defined noise type; and processing the two or more microphone audio signals based on the analysis to generate at least one audio signal suitable for automatic speech recognition. A corresponding apparatus is also provided.

A method, computer program product, and computing system for proactive encounter scanning is executed on a computing device and includes obtaining encounter information of a patient encounter. The encounter information is proactively processed to determine if the encounter information is indicative of one or more medical conditions and to generate one or more result set. The one or more result sets are provided to the user.

A system and method for reverberation reduction is disclosed. A first Deep Neural Network (DNN) produces a first estimate of a target direct-path signal from a mixture of acoustic signals that include the target direct-path signal and a reverberation of the target direct-path signal. A filter modeling a room impulse response (RIR) for the first estimate is estimated. The filter when applied to the first estimate of the target direct-path signal generates a result closest to a residual between the mixture of the acoustic signals and the first estimate of the target direct-path signal according to a distance function. A mixture with reduced reverberation of the target direct-path signal is obtained by removing the result of applying the filter to the first estimate of the target direct-path signal from the received mixture. A second DNN produces a second estimate of the target direct-path signal from the mixture with reduced reverberation.

An audio system includes: a speaker; a microphone that generates a microphone signal based on sound output from the speaker; a mixer module configured to generate a mixed signal by mixing the microphone signal with an audio signal; a filter module configured to filter the mixed signal to produce a filtered signal and to apply the filtered signal to the speaker; and a detector module configured to determine a howling frequency in the microphone signal attributable to sound output from the speaker, where the filter module is configured to decrease a magnitude of the filtered signal at the howling frequency.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to reduce noise from harmonic noise sources. An example apparatus includes at least one memory; at least one processor to execute the computer readable instructions to at least: determine a first amplitude value of a frequency component in a frequency spectrum of an audio sample; determine a set of points in the frequency spectrum having at least one of (a) amplitude values within an amplitude threshold of the first amplitude value, (b) frequency values within a frequency threshold of the first amplitude value, or (c) phase values within a phase threshold of the first amplitude value; increment a counter when a distance between (1) a second amplitude value in the set of points and (2) the first amplitude value satisfies a distance threshold; and when the counter satisfies a counter threshold, generate a contour trace based on the set of points.
