Abstract

Systems and methods for identifying audio events in one or more audio streams include the use of a cascade audio spotting system (such as a cascade keyword spotting system (KWS)) to reduce power consumption while maintaining a desired performance. An example cascade audio spotting system may include a first module and a high-power subsystem. The first module is to receive an audio stream from one or more audio streams, process the audio stream to detect a first target sound activity in the audio stream, and provide a first signal in response to detecting the first target sound activity in the audio stream. The high-power subsystem is to (in response to the first signal being provided by the first module) receive the one or more audio streams and process the one or more audio streams to detect a second target sound activity in the one or more audio streams.
