Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device comprises a speaker, a plurality of microphones, at least one processor operatively connected with the speaker and the plurality of microphones, and a memory operatively connected with the at least one processor, wherein the memory is configured to store instructions which, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform speech audio processing or non-speech audio processing on audio signals received via the plurality of microphones, upon obtaining a non-speech audio signal based on the speech audio processing or the non-speech audio processing, identify a non-speech audio signal pattern corresponding to the non-speech audio signal, obtain a non-speech audio signal-based first command based on the identified non-speech audio signal pattern, and perform at least one action corresponding to the obtained non-speech audio signal-based first command.
