Although there have been some traditional methods that consider nonlinear distortion, they are still inefficient for echo suppression and the performance will be attenuated when noise is present. In this paper, we present a real-time AEC approach using complex neural network to better modeling the important phase information and frequency-time-LSTMs (F-T-LSTM), which scan both frequency and time axis, for better temporal modeling. Moreover, we utilize modified SI-SNR as cost function to make the model to have better echo cancellation and noise suppression (NS) performance. With only 1.4M parameters, the proposed approach outperforms the AEC-challenge baseline by 0.27 in terms of Mean Opinion Score (MOS).","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.07577v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2106.07577v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"f-t-lstm-based-complex-network-for-joint","repo_url":"https://github.com/echocatzh/Demo-of-DeepComplexAEC","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
