Tech companies like Google, Amazon, Apple, and Microsoft dominate the development of Artificial Intelligence, AI, technology. However, when it comes to development and roll-out of applications of AI, several Danish major players in the audio industry are at the forefront worldwide – most notably in the fields of hearing aids and headsets. Tune into this webinar to learn more about the state of the nation on AI in audio in some of the lead Danish audio companies.
Program:
In the fields of hearing aids and headsets, mostly dominated by Danish companies in the world scene, AI is employed to offer unprecedent solutions and carve its way into staying ahead of anything available in the market. Partnering with the leading Hi-Tech companies and exploring the unique and high level of competence in AI in Danish universities, AI is taken to new levels and is being successfully deployed in different applications. This session will dive into the success of AI applications in audio applications through case stories garnered with visionary strategy. More specifically, the topics of this webinar will be:
- How AI improves speech recognition
- Data driven AI based algorithm for speech enhancement
- Present and future applications of AI in hearing aids
