Dereverberation

Dereverberation is the process of removing or reducing the effects of reverberation from an audio signal. Reverberation is the persistence of sound in a particular space after the original sound source has stopped, caused by reflections off surfaces like walls, floors, and ceilings. While some level of reverberation can contribute to a sound's richness, excessive reverberation can muddy audio clarity and make it difficult to understand speech or appreciate music.
