Provided are an electronic device capable of providing text information corresponding to a user voice through a user interface and a method of controlling the electronic device. Specifically, an electronic device according to the present disclosure, when an image including at least one object is obtained, analyzes the image to identify the at least one object included in the image, and when a user voice is received, performs voice recognition on the user voice to obtain text information corresponding to the user voice, then identifies an object corresponding to the user voice among the at least one object included in the image, and displays a memo user interface (UI) including text information on an area corresponding to the object identified as corresponding to the user voice among areas on a display.

Electronic device and method of controlling electronic device

A speech recognition method includes receiving a first multi-channel audio signal; obtaining at least one of a speech signal characteristic or a noise signal characteristic for at least one frequency band of frequency bands corresponding to channel audio signals included in the first multi-channel audio signal; generating a signal with an enhanced speech component by performing beamforming on the first multi-channel audio signal based on the speech signal characteristic, a speech signal characteristic obtained for a previous frame that was obtained before a certain time that the first multi-channel audio signal was obtained, and the noise signal characteristic; determining whether the enhanced speech component includes a wake word; and based on determining that the enhanced speech component includes the wake word: activating a speech recognition operation based on the signal with the enhanced speech component.

Method and apparatus for performing speech recognition with wake on voice (WoV)

A method, performed by an electronic device, of identifying location information of an external includes: obtaining map information including location information for each time interval of a mobile device based on the mobile device moving while generating noise near the external device; obtaining audio signal information about an audio signal including the noise generated by the mobile device, the audio signal being collected by a microphone of the external device; identifying, from the audio signal information, a time point at which a noise level of the noise generated by the mobile device is highest; obtaining, from the map information, location information of the mobile device corresponding to the identified time point; and identifying the location information of the external device based on the obtained location information of the mobile device.
