Abstract

A sound processing apparatus includes a receiving module configured to receive audio signals of one or more sounds acquired by a personal sound device, a processing module configured to use a sound processing model to perform: classification processing in which a type of a scenario where a user of the personal sound device is located is determined based on the audio signals; identification processing in which each of the one or more sounds is determined as a desired sound or an undesired sound based on the determined type of the scenario, and filtering processing in which filtering configuration is performed based on a result of the identification processing. The audio signals are filtered based on the filtering configuration, and an output module is configured to output the filtered audio signals, so as to provide same to the user.
