Abstract
An electronic device includes a microphone; at least one memory storing a wake-up word detection model; and at least one processor configured to: obtain a sound signal received through the microphone, input the sound signal into the wake-up word detection model, obtain, as an output of the wake-up word detection model, one or more first probability scores corresponding to one or more sections of the sound signal, wherein each first probability score of the one or more first probability scores represents a probability that a corresponding section of the one or more sections of the sound signal corresponds to a wake-up word, identify a first section of the sound signal, among the one or more sections of the sound signal, that corresponds to a first probability score, among the one or more first probability scores, that exceeds a first threshold value, and based on identifying a predetermined acoustic signal in the sound signal, reduce the first threshold value.
