Detection and classification of audio events in gaming systems

A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:

• receiving a gaming system audio stream from a gaming system;
• providing at least a portion of the gaming system audio stream to a neural network which has been trained to detect particular sounds including a predetermined sound of interest and to generate an indication that the predetermined sound of interest has been detected in the gaming system audio stream;
• receiving the indication that the predetermined sound of interest has been detected;
• selecting a predetermined audio profile responsive to the receiving the indication that the predetermined sound of interest has been detected;
• modifying aspects of the gaming system audio stream according to the predetermined audio profile, producing a modified audio stream;
• and
• providing the modified audio stream to an audio device of a player of the gaming system.

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a processing system including a processor, a gaming system audio stream during a video game;
• providing, by the processing system, at least a portion of the gaming system audio stream to a neural network which has been trained to detect one or more audio events including a predetermined audio event of interest in the gaming system audio stream;
• receiving, by the processing system, from the neural network, an indication of detection of the predetermined audio event of interest;
• providing, by the processing system, on a display device, a visual indication of detection of the predetermined audio event for a player of the video game;
• modifying, by the processing system, selected audio frequencies of the gaming system audio stream to enhance audibility of the predetermined audio event of interest for the player of the video game, producing a modified audio stream;
• and
• providing, by the processing system, the modified audio stream to audio equipment of the player of the video game.
