Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for automatically selecting a mute function based on audio content. One example method includes receiving, at a first computing device, a first audio input and, from a second computing device, a second audio input. Content of the first audio input and the second audio input is determined with natural language processing. Whether the content of the first audio input corresponds to the content of the second audio input is determined. A mute function is operated at the first computing device, based on the determination of whether the content of the first audio input corresponds to the content of the second audio input.
Claims21
A method for automatically selecting a mute function based on audio content, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a first computing device, a first audio input and, from a second computing device, a second audio input;
- determining, with natural language processing, content of the first audio input and content of the second audio input;
- determining whether the content of the first audio input corresponds to the content of the second audio input;
- and
- operating a mute function, at the first computing device, based on the determination of whether the content of the first audio input corresponds to the content of the second audio input.
A method of training a network to determine whether the content of a first audio input corresponds to the content of a second audio input, the method comprising:
- providing source audio data, wherein the source audio data comprises a plurality of source audio transcriptions and wherein the plurality of source audio transcriptions comprise one or more source audio words;
- producing a mathematical representation of the source audio data, wherein the source audio words are assigned a value that represents the context of the word;
- and
- training a network, using the mathematical representation of the source audio data, to determine whether the content of first and second audio inputs correspond.
A system for automatically selecting a mute function based on audio content, the system comprising:
- a communication port;
- and
- control circuitry configured to:
- receive, at a first computing device, a first audio input and, from a second computing device, a second audio input;
- determine, with natural language processing, content of the first audio input and content of the second audio input;
- determine whether the content of the first audio input corresponds to the content of the second audio input;
- and
- operate a mute function, at the first computing device, based on the determination of whether the content of the first audio input corresponds to the content of the second audio input.
A system for training a network to determine whether the content of a first audio input corresponds to the content of a second audio input, the system comprising:
- a communication port;
- and
- control circuitry configured to:
- receive source audio data;
- produce a mathematical representation of the source audio data;
- and
- train a network, using the mathematical representation of the source audio data, to determine whether the content of first and second audio inputs correspond.
