Claim 18:
19. A computing system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more storage devices storing computer-readable instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to configure the computing system to at least:
obtain electronic content comprising an audio stream comprising spoken language utterances;
access a speech enhancement model that is trained on a first training dataset and optimized to generate optimized noise-suppressed speech outputs by updating one or more speech enhancement model parameters based on a first comparison of noise-suppressed transcription outputs obtained from applying noise-suppressed speech outputs to an automatic speech recognition model and ground truth transcription labels corresponding to the noise-suppressed speech outputs and a second comparison of noise-suppressed transcription outputs obtained from applying noisy audio data to the speech enhancement model and clean reference audio data corresponding to the noisy speech data; and
operate the speech enhancement model to generate an optimized noise-suppressed speech output based on a portion of the audio stream.
