Abstract:
A smart muting method for a teleconference or videoconference participant includes detecting audio of an audio-video stream; analyzing video data of the audio-video stream with respect to the detected audio; determining that the audio corresponds to an intended communication, based on the analyzing video data of the audio-video stream with respect to the detected audio; and rendering the audio, responsive to determining that the audio corresponds to an intended communication.
