REDUCED-LATENCY SPEECH PROCESSING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18261449 titled 'REDUCED-LATENCY SPEECH PROCESSING

Simplified Explanation

The device described in the patent application includes a first stage keyword detector and a processor. The processor is designed to initiate a change of state to enable a voice service that is in a low-power mode to be scheduled for execution on reserved processor cores, based on a signal indicating keyword detection by the first stage keyword detector before confirmation of the detection.

  • The device includes a first stage keyword detector and a processor.
  • The processor can initiate a change of state to enable a voice service in low-power mode to be scheduled for execution on reserved processor cores.
  • This change of state is based on a signal indicating keyword detection by the first stage keyword detector before confirmation of the detection.
      1. Potential Applications
  • This technology could be used in smart home devices to improve voice recognition capabilities.
  • It could also be applied in automotive systems for hands-free voice commands.
      1. Problems Solved
  • Enables efficient use of processor resources by scheduling voice services on reserved cores.
  • Improves responsiveness of voice services by initiating a change of state based on early keyword detection.
      1. Benefits
  • Enhances user experience by enabling faster execution of voice commands.
  • Optimizes power consumption by utilizing low-power mode for voice services when not in use.


Original Abstract Submitted

A device includes a first stage keyword detector and a processor. The processor is configured to, based on a signal indicating a keyword detection by the first stage keyword detector and prior to confirmation of the keyword detection, initiate a change of state to enable a voice service that is in a low-power mode to be scheduled for execution on one or more reserved processor cores.
