Version 2 – Version 1
NPAI has developed Technical Specification – Context-based Audio Enhancement (MPAI-CAE) V2.1 implementing all the changes required by the new web-based format of MPAI Technical Specifications.
MPAI has developed MPAI-CAE V2 containing the data formats required by the Audio Scene Description Composite AIM. This AIM receives an audio stream from a microphone array and produces a description of the orientation of the composing speech streams.
MPAI Acknowledges the important contributions made by Marina Bosi, Mert Burkay Çöteli, Nadir della Pozza, Mark Seligman, and Matteo Spanio in the development of MPAI-CAE V2.
Version1 – Version 2
MPAI has published Conformance Testing Specification: Context-based Audio Enhancement (MPAI-CAE) V1.4.
MPAI is indebted to the following individuals for the development of MPAI-CAE Technical Specification V1:
Yan Abu Arab (Speech Morphing Inc.), Marina Bosi (Stanford University), Sergio Canazza (Audio Innova), Mert Burkay Çöteli (ASELSAN A.Ş.), Nadir Dalla Pozza (Audio Innova), Michelangelo Guarise (Volumio), Hüseyin Hacıhabiboğlu (METU), Niccolo’ Pretto (Audio Innova), Paolo Ribeca (James Hutton, Ltd.), Mark Seligman (Speech Morphing Inc.), and Fathy Yassa (Speech Morphing Inc.).
MPAI published the WD of Technical Specification – Context based Audio Enhancement (MPAI-CAE) WD for Community Comments. Anybody was entitled to send comments to the MPAI Secretariat. Comments will be considered in the final draft of MPAI-CAE if received by 2024/01/23T23:59 UTC.
