Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for detecting wake words. An electronic device detects, from a microphone array, an audio signal in an environment proximate to the audio front end system. The electronic device processes the audio signal using a plurality of wake word detection engines, including dynamically adjusting how many wake word detection engines are available for processing the audio signal. The electronic device independently adjusts respective wake word detection thresholds for the plurality of wake word detection engines used to process the audio signal.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for detecting wake words. An electronic device detects an audio signal; identifies two spatial zones as first and second sources of audio associated with the audio signal; processes the audio signal at two wake word detection engines, where each detection engine is associated with a respective spatial zone; determines, based on the processing at the wake word detection engines, whether the audio signal represents a wake word for the electronic device; and in accordance with a determination that the audio signal does represent a wake word, adjusts a wake word detection threshold for at least one of the wake word detection engines.
