Abstract

Methods and systems for transmission of noise parameters for improving automatic speech recognition are disclosed. A system includes one or more microphones, wherein each microphone is configured to produce an audio signal. The system also includes a noise reduction module configured to generate a noise-reduced audio signal and a noise parameter. Furthermore, the system includes a transmitter configured to transmit, to a computing device, the noise-reduced audio signal and a noise parameter. The computing device may use the noise parameter in obtaining a model to use for performing automatic speech recognition.
