The method including receiving an audio input stream via a microphone. Dividing the audio input stream into audio segments. Filtering high energy audio segments from the audio segments. If a high energy audio segment includes speech, then determining if the speech is recognized as the speech of users of the system. If the high energy audio segment does not include the speech, then classifying the high energy audio segment as an interesting sound or an uninteresting sound. Determining whether to turn video on based on classification of the high energy audio segment as the interesting sound, speech recognition of the speech as the speech of the users of the system, and contextual data.

Abstract: A system, method, apparatus and computer readable medium for hierarchical speech recognition resolution. The method of hierarchical speech recognition resolution on a platform includes receiving a speech stream from a microphone. The speech stream is resolved using a lowest possible level automatic speech recognition (ASR) engine of multi-level ASR engines. The selection of the lowest possible level ASR engine is based on policies defined for the platform. If resolution of the speech stream is rated less than a predetermined confidence level, the resolution of the speech stream is pushed to a next higher-level ASR engine of the multi-level ASR engines until the resolution of the speech stream meets the predetermined confidence level without violating one or more policies.
