  • Patent number: 10313845
    Abstract: Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure describe proactive speech detection on behalf of a user and alerting the user when a specific word, name, etc. is detected. Speech detection is actively executed through a computing device, where the speech detection analyzes spoken utterances in association with a dynamic grammar file stored locally on the computing device. An alert is generated that indicates when a spoken word of the utterances matches a word stored in the dynamic grammar file. The alert may be displayed, for example, through the computing device. The alert provides indication that the spoken word is identified in the spoken utterances. In further examples, a buffered window of the spoken utterances is captured which is associated with a detection of the specific word. A live transcription of the content in the buffered window is generated and provided to a computing device of the user.
