Single Microphone Own Voice Detection based on Simulated Transfer Functions for Hearing Aids
This paper presents a simulation-based approach to own voice detection (OVD) in hearing aids using a single microphone. While OVD can significantly improve user comfort and speech intelligibility, enabling reliable OVD with a single microphone is desirable for simplifying hardware and reducing power consumption in compact hearing devices. However, most existing solutions rely on multiple microphones or additional sensors, increasing device complexity and cost. To enable ML-based OVD without requiring costly transfer-function measurements, we propose a data augmentation strategy based on simulated acoustic transfer functions (ATFs) that expose the model to a wide range of spatial propagati...
