PROVIDING PRE-COMPUTED HOTWORD MODELS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240290333 titled 'PROVIDING PRE-COMPUTED HOTWORD MODELS
The patent application describes methods, systems, and apparatus for obtaining audio data for multiple users speaking specific words or sub-words, training pre-computed hotword models based on the audio data, receiving candidate hotwords, identifying corresponding pre-computed hotword models, and providing these models to a computing device.
- The technology involves obtaining audio data for words or sub-words spoken by multiple users.
- Pre-computed hotword models are trained based on the audio data for each word or sub-word.
- Candidate hotwords are received from a computing device.
- The system identifies pre-computed hotword models that match the candidate hotword.
- The identified hotword models are then provided to the computing device.
Potential Applications: - Speech recognition systems - Voice-controlled devices - Language learning tools
Problems Solved: - Improving accuracy of speech recognition - Enhancing user experience with voice-controlled devices
Benefits: - Faster and more accurate recognition of spoken words - Personalized hotword models for individual users - Enhanced user interaction with devices
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhancing Speech Recognition Technology for Voice-Controlled Devices" This technology can be used in smart speakers, virtual assistants, and other voice-controlled devices to improve the accuracy and efficiency of speech recognition, leading to a better user experience and increased market competitiveness.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve the accuracy of speech recognition systems?
- The technology trains pre-computed hotword models based on audio data, leading to more accurate recognition of spoken words.
2. What are the potential applications of this technology beyond voice-controlled devices?
- This technology can also be used in language learning tools, transcription services, and other speech-related applications.
Original Abstract Submitted
methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for obtaining, for each of multiple words or sub-words, audio data corresponding to multiple users speaking the word or sub-word; training, for each of the multiple words or sub-words, a pre-computed hotword model for the word or sub-word based on the audio data for the word or sub-word; receiving a candidate hotword from a computing device; identifying one or more pre-computed hotword models that correspond to the candidate hotword; and providing the identified, pre-computed hotword models to the computing device.
