Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage devices are disclosed for improved real-time audio processing. One method including: constructing a deep neural network model, including a plurality of at least one-bit neurons, configured to output a predicted label of audio data, the plurality of at least one-bit neurons arranged in a plurality of layers, including at least one hidden layer, and being connected by a plurality of connections, each connection having at least a one-bit weight, wherein one or both of the plurality of at least one-bit neurons and the plurality of connections have a reduced bit precision; receiving a training data set, the training data set including audio data; training the deep neural network model using the training data set; and outputting a trained deep neural network model configured to output a predicted label of real-time audio data.
