Speech Recognition Power Management

US Patent:
20180096689, Apr 5, 2018
Filed:
Jul 10, 2017
Appl. No.:
15/645918
Inventors:
- Seattle WA, US
Hugh Evan Secker-Walker - Newburyport MA, US
Tony David - San Jose CA, US
Reinhard Kneser - Aachen, North Rhine-Westphalia, DE
Jeffrey Penrod Adams - Tyngsborough MA, US
Stan Weidner Salvador - Tega Cay SC, US
Mahesh Krishnamoorthy - Melrose MA, US
International Classification:
G10L 15/28
G10L 15/08
G10L 15/30
G10L 25/78
Abstract:
Power consumption for a computing device may be managed by one or more keywords. For example, if an audio input obtained by the computing device includes a keyword, a network interface module and/or an application processing module of the computing device may be activated. The audio input may then be transmitted via the network interface module to a remote computing device, such as a speech recognition server. Alternately, the computing device may be provided with a speech recognition engine configured to process the audio input for on-device speech recognition.

US Patent:
20160071519, Mar 10, 2016
Filed:
Nov 16, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/942551
Inventors:
- Seattle WA, US
Hugh Evan Secker-Walker - Newburyport MA, US
Jeffrey Cornelius O'Neill - Somerville MA, US
International Classification:
G10L 15/32
G10L 15/30
Abstract:
Features are disclosed for managing the use of speech recognition models and data in automated speech recognition systems. Models and data may be retrieved asynchronously and used as they are received or after an utterance is initially processed with more general or different models. Once received, the models and statistics can be cached. Statistics needed to update models and data may also be retrieved asynchronously so that it may be used to update the models and data as it becomes available. The updated models and data may be immediately used to re-process an utterance, or saved for use in processing subsequently received utterances. User interactions with the automated speech recognition system may be tracked in order to predict when a user is likely to utilize the system. Models and data may be pre-cached based on such predictions.
