Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method for monitoring performance of acoustic echo cancellation, the method comprising: facilitating generation of an audio output by applying a first acoustic echo cancellation algorithm to an audio input, wherein the first acoustic echo cancellation algorithm is programmed in software; determining, by comparing the generated audio output with an output of a second acoustic echo cancellation algorithm, one or more performance metrics for the first acoustic echo cancellation algorithm based on the generated audio output, wherein the first acoustic echo cancellation algorithm is different from the second acoustic echo cancellation algorithm; providing the one or more performance metrics for storage in a memory; and providing a software update to the first acoustic echo cancellation algorithm in response to a determination that the first acoustic echo cancellation algorithm is failing or working poorly, wherein the determination that the first acoustic echo cancellation algorithm is failing or working poorly is based on an analysis of the one or more performance metrics stored in the memory.
