Abstract

A method for selective transmission of audio data to a speech processing server uses detection of an acoustic trigger in the audio data in determining the data to transmit. Detection of the acoustic trigger makes use of an efficient computation approach that reduces the amount of run-time computation required, or equivalently improves accuracy for a given amount of computation, by using a neural network to determine an indicator of presence of the acoustic trigger. In some example, the neural network combines a 'time delay' structure in which intermediate results of computations are reused at various time delays, thereby avoiding computation of computing new results, and decomposition of certain transformations to require fewer arithmetic operations without sacrificing significant performance.
