Abstract (en)
A method for directionally amplifying a sound signal (36) of a hearing device (12) comprises: receiving the sound signal (36) from a microphone (20) of the hearing device (12); extracting a user voice signal (62) and directional sound signals (40, 46) from the sound signal (36); determining a word sequence (54) from the user voice signal (62) and each directional sound signal (40, 46); determining a semantic representation (58) from each word sequence (54); identifying conversations (34) from the semantic representations (58), wherein each conversion (34) is associated with one or more directional sound signals (40, 46) and wherein each conversation (34) is identified by clustering semantic representations (58); and processing the sound signal (36), such that directional sound signals (40, 46) associated with one of the conversations (34) are amplified.
