  • Patent number: 11398228
    Abstract: A voice recognition method, device, and a server are provided. The method includes: receiving a user voice; determining a wake-up voice of a wake-up word in the user voice, according to an acoustic feature of the user voice; and labeling the wake-up voice with a silence identifier; and ignoring the wake-up voice based on the silence identifier during voice recognition.
