Abstract: Techniques are provided for segmentation of a key phrase. A methodology implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes accumulating feature vectors extracted from time segments of an audio signal, and generating a set of acoustic scores based on those feature vectors. Each of the acoustic scores in the set represents a probability for a phonetic class associated with the time segments. The method further includes generating a progression of scored model state sequences, each of the scored model state sequences based on detection of phonetic units associated with a corresponding one of the sets of acoustic scores generated from the time segments of the audio signal. The method further includes analyzing the progression of scored state sequences to detect a pattern associated with the progression, and determining a starting and ending point for segmentation of the key phrase based on alignment of the detected pattern with an expected pattern.

Abstract: Key phrase detection techniques for applications such as wake on voice are discussed include performing a vectorized operation on a multiple element acoustic score vector for a current time instance including a single state rejection model score and scores for a multiple state key phrase model and a multiple element state score vector for a previous time instance including a previous state score for the single state rejection model and previous state scores for the multiple state key phrase model to generate a multiple element score summation vector and a second vectorized operation on the multiple element score summation vector to determine a multiple element state score vector for the current time instance. The multiple element state score vector for the current time instance may then be evaluated to determine whether received audio input includes a key phrase corresponding to the multiple state key phrase model.
