Acoustic echo cancellation with the dual-signal transformation LSTM network

This paper applies the dual-signal transformation LSTM network (DTLN) to the task of real-time acoustic echo cancellation (AEC). The DTLN combines a short-time Fourier transformation and a learned feature representation in a stacked network approach, which enables robust information processing in the time-frequency and in the time domain, which also includes phase information...
The model is only trained on 60~h of real and synthetic echo scenarios. The training setup includes multi-lingual speech, data augmentation, additional noise and reverberation to create a model that should generalize well to a large variety of real-world conditions. The DTLN approach
