Beyond Model Size: Redesigning LiSenNet for embedded speech enhancement

The paper presents a redesign of the LiSenNet speech‑enhancement model for deployment on the STM32N6570‑DK Neural‑ART microcontroller accelerator. By replacing the recurrent bottleneck with convolutional mixers, converting unsupported operations to static int8 primitives, and using bounded decoder activations, the authors achieve an NPU‑compatible model that matches or surpasses the original LiSenNet in quality (PESQ 3.08 vs 3.01 FP32) while running each 16 ms input hop in 4.83 ms (real‑time factor 0.30). The study demonstrates that co‑designing parameter count, operator compatibility, quantization range, and streaming state is essential for efficient real‑time speech enhancement on constrained NPUs.
