Abstract
An audio keyword searcher arranged to identify a voice segment of a received audio signal; identify, by an automatic speech recognition engine, one or more phonemes included in the voice segment; output, from the automatic speech recognition engine, the one or more phonemes to a keyword filter to detect whether the voice segment includes any of the one or more first keywords of the first keyword list and, if detected, output the one or more phonemes included in the voice segment to a decoder but, if not detected, not output the one or more phonemes included in the voice segment to the decoder. If the one or more phonemes are output to the decoder: generate a word lattice associated with the voice segment; search the word lattice for one or more second keywords, and determine whether the voice segment includes the one or more second keywords.
