Abstract

A method, which is performed by an electronic device, for obtaining a speaker-independent keyword model of a keyword designated by a user is disclosed. The method may include receiving at least one sample sound from the user indicative of the keyword. The method may also generate a speaker-dependent keyword model for the keyword based on the at least one sample sound, send a request for the speaker-independent keyword model of the keyword to a server in response to generating the speaker-dependent keyword model, and receive the speaker-independent keyword model adapted for detecting the keyword spoken by a plurality of users from the server.
