Abstract
Techniques for using a dynamic wakeword detection threshold are described. A device detects a wakeword in audio data using a first wakeword detection threshold value. Thereafter, the device receives audio including speech. If the device receives the audio within a predetermined duration of time after detecting the previous wakeword, the device attempts to detect a wakeword in second audio data, corresponding to the audio including the speech, using a second, lower wakeword detection threshold value.
