Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for detecting utterances of a key phrase in an audio signal. One of the methods includes receiving, by a key phrase spotting system, an audio signal encoding one or more utterances; while continuing to receive the audio signal, generating, by the key phrase spotting system, an attention output using an attention mechanism that is configured to compute the attention output based on a series of encodings generated by an encoder comprising one or more neural network layers; generating, by the key phrase spotting system and using attention output, output that indicates whether the audio signal likely encodes the key phrase; and providing, by the key phrase spotting system, the output that indicates whether the audio signal likely encodes the key phrase.
