Abstract

According to an embodiment, an electronic device may include a memory configured to store a noise removal neural network model and data utilized in the noise removal neural network model and a processor electrically connected to the memory wherein the memory may store instructions that, when executed, enable the processor to: output a first channel signal using a first beamformer for a multi-channel audio signal; output a second channel signal using a second beamformer; generate a third channel signal that compensates for a difference in noise levels between the first channel signal and the second channel signal; and train the noise removal neural network model by using the third channel signal in which the difference in noise levels is compensated for and the first channel signal as input values.
