Abstract

Features are disclosed for modeling user interaction with a detection system using a stochastic dynamical model in order to determine or adjust detection thresholds. The model may incorporate numerous features, such as the probability of false rejection and false acceptance of a user utterance and the cost associated with each potential action. The model may determine or adjust detection thresholds so as to minimize the occurrence of false acceptances and false rejections while preserving other desirable characteristics. The model may further incorporate background and speaker statistics. Adjustments to the model or other operation parameters can be implemented based on the model, user statistics, and/or additional data.
