Abstract: Techniques for detecting certain acoustic events from audio data are described. A system may perform event aggregation for certain types of events before sending an output to a device representing the event is detected. The system may bypass the event aggregation process for certain types of events that the system may detect with a high level of confidence. In such cases, the system may send an output to the device when the event is detected. The system may be used to detect acoustic events representing presence of a person or other harmful circumstances (such as, fire, smoke, etc.) in a home, an office, a store, or other types of indoor settings.

Abstract: A system capable of performing natural language understanding (NLU) on utterances including complex command structures such as sequential commands (e.g., multiple commands in a single utterance), conditional commands (e.g., commands that are only executed if a condition is satisfied), and/or repetitive commands (e.g., commands that are executed until a condition is satisfied). Audio data may be processed using automatic speech recognition (ASR) techniques to obtain text. The text may then be processed using machine learning models that are trained to parse text of incoming utterances. The models may identify complex utterance structures and may identify what command portions of an utterance go with what conditional statements. Machine learning models may also identify what data is needed to determine when the conditionals are true so the system may cause the commands to be executed (and stopped) at the appropriate times.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a dynamic configuration management method providing an automatically updated configuration management structure (100). The configuration management structure is updated according to the configuration management pattern (109) which is suggested according to the DSM (108) which is updated according to the list of components (107).
