A method and an apparatus are provided for retrieving keyword. The apparatus configures at least two types of language models in a model file, where each type of language model includes a recognition model and a corresponding decoding model; the apparatus extracts a speech feature from the to-be-processed speech data; performs language matching on the extracted speech feature by using recognition models in the model file one by one, and determines a recognition model based on a language matching rate; and determines a decoding model corresponding to the recognition model; decoding the extracted speech feature by using the determined decoding model, and obtains a word recognition result after the decoding; and matches a keyword in a keyword dictionary and the word recognition result, and outputs a matched keyword.

Method and apparatus for performing speech keyword retrieval

This application discloses a method implemented of recognizing a keyword in a speech that includes a sequence of audio frames further including a current frame and a subsequent frame. A candidate keyword is determined for the current frame using a decoding network that includes keywords and filler words of multiple languages, and used to determine a confidence score for the audio frame sequence. A word option is also determined for the subsequent frame based on the decoding network, and when the candidate keyword and the word option are associated with two distinct types of languages, the confidence score of the audio frame sequence is updated at least based on a penalty factor associated with the two distinct types of languages. The audio frame sequence is then determined to include both the candidate keyword and the word option by evaluating the updated confidence score according to a keyword determination criterion.
