AUDIO DETECTION
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240412728 titled 'AUDIO DETECTION
Original Abstract Submitted
a device is configured to detect multiple different wakewords. a device may operate a joint encoder that operates on audio data to determine encoded audio data. the device may operate multiple different decoders which process the encoded audio data to determine if a wakeword is detected. each decoder may correspond to a different wakeword. the decoders may use fewer computing resources than the joint encoder, allowing for the device to more easily perform multiple wakeword processing. enabling/disabling wakeword(s) may involve the reconfiguring of a wakeword detector to add/remove data for respective decoder(s). specific decoders may be activated/deactivated depending on device context, thereby efficiently managing device resources.
