Abstract

A method includes detecting a keyword within an audio stream. The keyword is one of multiple keywords in a database, in which each of the multiple keywords relates to at least one of multiple domains in the database. The database stores a first confidence weight for each of the multiple keywords that are related to a first domain among the multiple domains. Each first confidence weight indicates a probability that a corresponding keyword relates to the first domain. The method includes determining whether a first confidence weight of the keyword is at least equal to an activation threshold value associated with the first domain. The method includes, in response to the first confidence weight of the keyword meeting the activation threshold value, activating a DS-ASR engine corresponding with the first domain to perform speech-to-text conversion on the audio stream.
