Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A low power sound recognition sensor is configured to receive an analog signal that may contain a signature sound. Sparse sound parameter information is extracted from the analog signal. The extracted sparse sound parameter information is processed using a speaker dependent sound signature database stored in the sound recognition sensor to identify sounds or speech contained in the analog signal. The sound signature database may include several user enrollments for a sound command each representing an entire word or multiword phrase. The extracted sparse sound parameter information may be compared to the multiple user enrolled signatures using cosine distance, Euclidean distance, correlation distance, etc., for example.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A method for training a speaker dependent sound recognition sensor, the method comprising: receiving an analog signal that contains a command sound spoken by a user of the sound recognition sensor; extracting sparse sound parameter information from the analog signal using an analog portion of the sound recognition sensor to form a user dependent sound vector representing an entire word or multiword phrase; and storing the speaker dependent sound vecto…
