Samsung patents voice filter that fixes bad audio using your saved voice profile

This filing describes a system that checks the quality of your voice input and, if it is too low, uses a saved sample of your voice to clean it up. The device converts the poor-quality audio into text, then uses your saved voice features to generate a clearer output signal.

Why it mattersThis could make voice commands or calls work better in noisy environments by automatically repairing low-quality audio using your personal voice profile.

In the filing’s own words

An electronic apparatus includes: memory storing instructions; and at least one processor including processing circuitry, wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor individually or collectively, may cause the electronic apparatus to: based on an input voice signal corresponding to an utterance of a user being received, acquire quality information including a score indicating a level of quality of the input voice signal, based on the score being below a first threshold value, identify a registered voice signal for the user stored in the memory, based on the registered voice signal being identified, acquire a reference voice signal representing voice features of the user based on the registered voice signal, and acquire an output voice signal for the input voice signal based on input text corresponding to the input voice signal and the reference voice signal.
